From the day the Flyers signed Ray Emery, we knew this day would come. Martin Biron, who spent two and a half years as the Flyers top goaltender, has signed with the New York Islanders. Biron was a victim of the Flyers running out of salary cap space and needing to find cheap alternatives...

The 2008 NHL Entry Draft will begin on Friday and the Flyers unlike last year pick late in the first round. The Fly guys seem to have a nice young group of forwards and defensemen who may be ready to contribute in years to come. One glaring weakness in the Flyers farm system is goaltending...

Sunday, the Flyers had their winning streak halted at 4 in a row by the Edmonton Oilers by a score of 5-4. In this game, like most of the season so far, Martin Biron does not look much the player that was seen in the playoffs. He seems to be fighting the puck and over-anticipating the play.

The Hockey Gods Have Frowned Upon Marty Biron

Unable to stay with the Flyers and unable to sign anywhere else in the NHL, goaltender Antero Niittymaki has decided to go play in Russia. The former Flyer, who played five seasons in net, signed with Ray Emery's old team in the KHL, Atlant Moscow Oblast. Think of it as an international...
That’s why you don’t get greedy, Marty.
I have to admit, this one is going to be a little tougher for me to write. I’ve been a fan of Martin Biron even before he signed with the Flyers and was overjoyed when I heard he’d be wearing the Orange and Black. I couldn’t wait to see him on the ice and I [...]

Don't blame Marty Biron for this one. The Flyers were seemingly
