When the Islanders are able to maintain the same intensity for 60 minutes, they may very well become a good team.

The Philadelphia Flyers will try to continue their mastery of the Atlanta Thrashers tonight when the teams meet for a battle at Philips Arena.

With one period remaining in this tumultuous five-game road trip, the Flyers had at least a chance to salvage something Wednesday.

Buffalo's Tim Connolly scored twice in the third period and added two assists to help the Sabres defeat the Philadelphia Flyers 4-2 and snap a four-game losing streak Friday afternoon.

Throughout his first three seasons as Flyers coach, John Stevens has almost always gone with the hot hand in goal.

A 28-year-old man was fatally wounded tonight inside his West Philadelphia home, police said.

Usually, a four-point night is one to be celebrated. After Monday night's game in Denver, a brutal 5-4 loss to the Colorado Avalanche, nothing could console Danny Briere - not even a two-goal, two-assist effort.

Scott Hartnell scored from the high slot with 5 minutes, 27 seconds left tonight as the Flyers outlasted the New York Islanders, 2-1. Brian Boucher made 28 saves for the winners.

David Jones scored twice, Paul Stastny had a goal and two assists and the Colorado Avalanche stopped a two-game skid with a 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday night.

If you're an elite team, you find ways to overcome injuries. The Flyers will spend the next month - or longer - finding out if they fit that description.

The Coyotes take on a Philadelphia Flyers team Saturday night that has a little bit of everything: Flashy forwards, a rookie with tons of potential and a goaltender off to an excellent start.

For the most part, the first quarter of the NHL season has been kind to the Philadelphia Flyers.

Written By: Mark a oeThe Hard Hittera Ritter There was plenty of hype surrounding last nighta s matchup between the Philadelphia Flyers and the San Jose Sharks and there was plenty on the line for both of these clubs, mainly, bragging rights.

For the second game in a row, the Flyers will face a high-powered offense when they take on the Sharks tonight in San Jose.

Having scored five goals in his first six games, Philadelphia Flyers forward Mike Richards was off to the hottest start of his short NHL career.

Mika Pyorala scored his first NHL goal, backup goalie Brian Boucher made 37 saves and the Philadelphia Flyers opened a trip with their seventh victory in eight games, 3-2 over the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday night.

No team in the NHL has played fewer road games than the Flyers, who face off against the Los Angeles Kings tonight in just their sixth road test of the season.

Not in our house. And definitely not on Dave Schultz Hall of Fame Night. That was the message goalie Ray Emery and the Flyers sent the New Jersey Devils in their 3-2 victory Monday night in front of a sellout crowd at the Wachovia Center.

A lot had changed since the Flyers crushed the New Jersey Devils by three goals in the second game of the season.
