No. 40 is Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Kimmo Timonen.When I first started this series on Sunday, one of the things I mentioned is that these types of rankings are always filled with subjectivity and personal opinion. That's just unavoidable when attempting...

The Philadelphia Flyers announced today that they have signed forwards Lukas Kaspar, Krys Kolanos, Mika Pyorala, Jason Ward and Joey Mormina to one-year contracts, according to club General Manager Paul Holmgren. Per club policy, financial terms were not disclosed.

I originally wanted to write up a few ideas I had about resigning key impending FAs, but I realized that there aren’t many this year.

Marty Biron signed a one-year deal with the New York Islanders this week. As a Flyers fan, it's time for what's become a tradition, to say goodbye to another starting goalie.

When your cleaning out your locker, take a minute to sit with...
