Weekend Closes with Dallas Dominance
Be prepared for a short read, as there really isn’t a whole lot to say here. After a 5-game point streak (3-0-2), the Flyers fell in a drastic 5-1 loss against Dallas at the American Airlines Center. I wish I had something positive to say, or even something blatantly negative, but there just really isn’tContinue reading “Weekend Closes with Dallas Dominance”
Nailbiter Win in St. Louis
The first game of Philadelphia’s back-to-back weekend ended in a shootout win against St. Louis. Although the 6-5 win was exciting to watch, what could have been a blowout win for Philadelphia ended up as a model for poor goaltending and defense. Philadelphia should have had this game in a landslide. Yet as I mentionedContinue reading “Nailbiter Win in St. Louis”

Injuries, Broken Streaks, and New Lineups for Halloweekend
It was a spooky weekend in Philadelphia, and I’m not talking about Thursday’s Halloween game. A weekend of injuries, lackluster goaltending, and broken streaks left the Flyers to face a Canadian sweep. Back-to-back home games ended with no points for the Flyers, as they fell 5-2 to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday and 2-1Continue reading “Injuries, Broken Streaks, and New Lineups for Halloweekend”
Zegras Shines Against Nashville
The Flyers defeated the Predators 4-1 last night as former Anaheim teammates Trevor Zegras and Jamie Drysdale had successful games.
