Oskar Lindblom and Scott Laughton were added to the NHL's Covid protocol yesterday. With all respect to Laughton, and the other Flyers (Travis Sanheim, Justin Braun, Claude Giroux and Jake Voracek) on Covid Protocol, all that is going through the crazy that is my mind is Please, God, please...not Oskar Lindblom. That young man has … Continue reading Please God, Not Oskar Lindblom
Which Flyers Will Make the 2022 Olympics?
The sports world has been turned upside down due to the coronavirus pandemic and the Olympics are not immune to the mess. The Summer Games have been put on the back burner as they were supposed to take place in 2020, but were delayed until 2021 and possibly later. Now, the Winter Olympics are on … Continue reading Which Flyers Will Make the 2022 Olympics?
Worst to First: NWHL Jerseys 2021
The 2021 NWHL season is in the books. Unfortunately, it didn't end the way everyone wanted, but it was a great few weeks and not only did I get to take in their on-ice play, I got to get a front row seat to their badass hockey jerseys. Any time I get to break out … Continue reading Worst to First: NWHL Jerseys 2021
Flyers Redraft: 2005
After the draft in Raleigh, North Carolina we get to a huge draft that totally didn't have a skewed draft lottery. May make an article about it and a better way to do a draft lottery if a season is ever cancelled for one reason or another, but this isn't all about the validity of … Continue reading Flyers Redraft: 2005
JVR Playing Well, but He’s Still Destined For Seattle
If I told you two months ago that James Van Riemsdyk would be the team's top goal scorer and point getter, most of you wouldn't believe me. Hell, I wouldn't believe me. But yet, that's exactly what is going on. Van Riemsdyk looks like his old self from his days in Toronto this season and … Continue reading JVR Playing Well, but He’s Still Destined For Seattle
The Flyers fall to the Bruins 4-3 in OT
The bleeding started the minute the puck was dropped. It only took 12 seconds for Pasternak to dangle around Ghost and score for the Bruins. That's not acceptable for a team with as much talent as the Flyers, yet alone any NHL team. One of the reasons that goal happened was because AV decided to … Continue reading The Flyers fall to the Bruins 4-3 in OT
It’s Felix Sandstrom’s Time to Prove Himself
When Felix Sandstrom finally came over to North America to play for the Flyers last season, hopes were high for the then-22-year-old to work through the ranks quickly as an eventual number two to Carter Hart. But upon his transition to North American ice, things didn't really go as planned. He was sent to the … Continue reading It’s Felix Sandstrom’s Time to Prove Himself
Flyers Redrafts: 2004
From Nashville, Tennessee to Raleigh, North Carolina, we go from a legendary draft to draft with a legendary player. While the 2004 draft wasn't as great as the drafts before and after it, this draft has possibly the best 1 and 2 picks with Alex Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin. I would like to say that … Continue reading Flyers Redrafts: 2004
Erik Gustafsson is Coming as Advertised
When defenseman Matt Niskanen retired during the 2020 offseason, it seemed as though Chuck Fletcher would've had his hand forced and signed a another top defenseman to take his place, right? Well that isn't exactly what ended up happening. Instead, they threw a one-year, $3 million deal at 28-year-old Swedish defenseman Erik Gustafsson who has … Continue reading Erik Gustafsson is Coming as Advertised
The Honeymoon Phase is Over and AV is Serious
When the Flyers announced the hiring of Alain Vigneault as the 21st coach in team history there was some skepticism from the fanbase about what exactly he would bring to the team. Yet, upon his arrival he immediately earned the love and trust from the fanbase with his whacky quotes, giving the team's youth a … Continue reading The Honeymoon Phase is Over and AV is Serious
