Why NHL Players FEARED Dave Schultz Before He Even Dropped The Gloves -
Why did NHL players fear Dave Schultz before he even dropped the gloves? Dave “The Hammer” Schultz wasn’t simply one of the toughest fighters of the 1970s—his presence could change the way an entire opposing bench approached a game. Players looked for space sooner, physical opponents had to decide whether challenging Philadelphia was worth the consequences, and everyone knew No. 8 could answer if one of his teammates was targeted. In this video, we explore the incredible NHL career of Dave Schultz, the feared enforcer who became one of the defining figures of the Philadelphia Flyers’ legendary **Broad Street Bullies** era. Schultz set an NHL record with an astonishing 472 penalty minutes during the 1974–75 season**, a mark that still stands, while helping Philadelphia capture its second consecutive Stanley Cup. But Schultz was more than a fighter. He scored 20 goals during the 1973–74 season, delivered important playoff contributions, and became a player opponents couldn’t simply ig

Bobby Clarke turns 80: The best and worst of the Flyers icon -
On Aug. 13, 1946, Robert Earle Clarke was born in Flin Flon, Manitoba. He battled the odds, overcame diabetes, and became the face of the Philadelphia Flyers for the better part of the first half of the franchise’s roughly 60-year history. He’s also the only Flyers captain to lead the team to Stanley Cup, and leads the team in games (for now), assists, points, short-handed goals, and even plus/minus (+507). But for all of his greatness on the ice while playing for the club, there were also some miscues when he went from the ice to the front office. So, on the Hall of Famer’s 80th birthday, let’s look back at three of the best things Clarke did for the Flyers. And, on the other side of the coin, three of the things a lot of people would probably like to forget.

“It’s all opportunity, right?”: Flyers prospect Carson Bjarnason refining outlook into second pro season -
The 2025-26 season was a pretty major one for Flyers goaltending prospect Carson Bjarnason. Having wrapped up quite a successful junior career the previous spring, he set his sights on the professional game, looking to make a strong first impression in the next step forward in his playing career. And while Bjarnason stepped up in a big way for the Phantoms through the first half of the season, much of the second half saw things shift on him, and inconsistencies creeping in as he worked through the grind of a long professional season, backstopping a team working through a heap of growing pains of its own. “Yeah, it’s a lot different,” Bjarnason said at this s

NHL Prospect Watch: Philadelphia Flyers -
In the lead-up to the 2026-27 hockey season, we’re diving into the WHL prospect pool for every NHL team. To be included in this list, a player must be recently drafted, signed to an NHL contract, or meet the NHL’s criteria for rookie status. Philadelphia's WHL contingent is flying high with a pair of 2026 Ed Chynoweth Cup champions. Carson Bjarnason One of the winningest Wheat Kings netminders of all time has traded major junior for the pro ranks. Six-foot-4, 207-pound Carson Bjarnason took on a 1B role with the AHL's Lehigh Valley Phantoms in 2025-26, going 14-11-4 with a 3.43 goals-against average and a .877 save percentage. One of his finest efforts came in a 35-save 6-2 win over the Bridgeport Islanders on November 5. The 21-year-old also made two late-season appearances with the ECHL's Reading Royals before returning to Lehigh Valley. The Flyers snapped up the Carberry, Man. product with the 51st overall pick in the second round of the

Some young players will be involved but the roster is largely decided except a couple of positional battles that you could consider. Once the team starts to whittle down its roster, they have to eventually make the call and put some players on the waiver wire.

The headline for the Flyers and general manager Danny Briere this offseason will be: “Ducks match Flyers’ offer sheet for Leo Carlsson.”And while that’s the main story, there are many layers to the statement, as well as intentions of the Flyers’ front office that show a turning point, and even perhaps the end of the “rebuild” era.All you have to do is go back to Briere’s pre-draft media availability at which he discussed the Flyers having a smaller number of picks than in previous seasons. Briere stated in so many words that the Flyers have to be able to play the guys that they’ve picked in past drafts.Enter the Ducks and their GM Pat Verbeek. A quick look at their recent draft history and you’ll see a group of not only rising stars in the NHL, but also solid depth players and pieces that help fill out a lineup.
