Flyers Roster Updates
Zac Rinaldo and Andreas Lilja are in tonight. Danny Briere, who won't play, participated in the morning skate today and told Randy Miller that he feels a little better: "I felt good today. I was able to push myself fairly hard on the ice at practice, which is a good sign. I haven’t had any contact, but I felt better than yesterday, so that’s a good sign"

Morning Buzz: A Miracle In The Making?
The Eagles destroyed the Jets. They looked a lot like the team we all thought they were going to be in the offseason. They played, fast, tough, and did not make too many mental mistakes. The effort was apparent. With that said, they need a lot of help to sneak into the playoffs.

The Eagles dominated the Jets, and won 45-19.

Game 11: Devils Find Their Way Back, Beat Flyers in a Shootout
Give the NJ Devils credit because they fell into a 2-0 hole to a very good Flyers team but were able to battle back and find a way to send the game to OT and eventually the shootout, where they skated away with a 4-3 victory.
I thought NJ played a decent first period and didn’t allow the Flyers to find the back of the net but that obviously didn’t sit well with Philly as they...

Goaltender Carey Price (.878 Save %, 3.13 GAA) and newcomer Eric Cole (1G, 1A, minus 4) have really struggled as the Canadiens are off to an abysmal 1-5-2 start this season. Their only win came against the Winnipeg...

Bill Meltzer: Meltzer's Musings: Expectations for Lilja
When free agency opened on July 1, the Flyers added three players (Jaromir Jagr, Max Talbot and Andreas Lilja) who are the owners of at least one Stanley Cup ring. Of the three acquisitions, the signing of Lilja was the one that got the most indifferent response.
I agree with those who would have preferred to see the Flyers re-sign Sean O'Donnell (who signed a one-year...

Free Agency Day 2011: A Review
Holy hockey happenings, Batman!
Today marked the beginning of NHL free agency. And although it took a little bit of time for the proverbial ball to get rolling, the league saw plenty of action. Naturally (as one might assume) one of the league’s busiest teams was the Philadelphia Flyers.

Over the last week, the Flyers said goodbye to Mike Richards, Jeff Carter, Darroll Powe, and Dan Carcillo. Today, they saw Ville Leino (Buffalo), Brian Boucher (Carolina), and Sean O’Donnell (Chicago) sign elsewhere. And we though it would be completely insane if the Flyers got...
