http://www.yardbarker.com/rss/player/5042 Recent articles about Scott Hartnell en-us Quite near happy hour last night, a Friday happy hour, I learned that the Philadelphia Flyers, presently lodged in 10th place in the Eastern conference, fired their head coach, John Stevens. A popular preseason pick for the playing of hockey in June, the Flyers this December instead are in disarray. With this very happy happy hour news instantaneously it seemed like Christmas. A white one, with Bing and Frank belting out carols on the stereo, the eggnog hearty, a warming fire crackling in the...

Meaningful Temple Football is on right now, seasoned up with some snowflakes falling on the field, and the Flyers have a Black Friday matinee game against the Sabres. I absolutely love that they this game. I already feel like people who shop on Black Friday are more deranged than savvy, and the Flyers reward this thinking by incentivizing not leaving the house. I'm left with the rare combinati...

Despite being outshot heavily by the visiting Hurricanes, the Flyers summarily dispatched them, 6-1. Very entertaining tilt, with 3+ fights (depending on what all you count), and the Flyers just kept finding the net. Ray Emery was up to almost every shot, and Braydon Coburn made some big strides toward regaining his role as a dangerous defenseman, scoring twice in 90 seconds. Scott Hartnell scored, assisted on two goals, and came *this close* to...

Our apologies for the lack of a Flyers gamethread and recap on Saturday. It was a very busy weekend for us off of the Level, and we weren't able to get to these. We'll be sure to make it up to you. The Flyers chatter has been great so far, especially considering the Phillies are in the playoffs and the Eagles are off to a great start. It's going to be a great season for the Orange & Black. Anyway, the Flyers have a huge break in the schedule a...

Witness:Sources told cable sports network TSN that referees Eric Furlatt and Dean Morton along with linesmen Don Henderson and Jean Morin did not see the alleged incident and as such, there was insufficient evidence to further penalize Hartnell.

By that I mean can we expect that players won't haul off and bite each other in the first month of the season? In that scuffle in the video above, the Penguins are alleging that Philadelphia's Scott Hartnell bit Kris Letang. You can see Letang make a run for it to be treated by doctors. After the game one of his fingers was heavily bandaged. What did Har...

The three finalists for the Selke Trophy as the NHL's top defensive forward were all deserving, all elite two-way players. But when the votes were counted and the hardware was handed out last night in Las Vegas, it was Pavel Datsyuk who took it home. Mike Richards wasn't far off though—the vote was the closest in the history of the award, 945-942. Get 'em next year, Richie. One Flyer who did win last night in Vegas was Scott Hartnell.  Altho...

The sun was shining, the sky was clear, little pieces of green had finally started to shoot through the unbearable grey Edmontonians had become accustomed to for the past six months. Homeless people had taken the day off begging, instead choosing to carry old lady's bags and clean the sidewalks. Children held doors for elders, using old colloquialisms like "sir" and "ma'am." During the hustle and bustle of a downtown lunch rush, people...

Scott Hartnell has achieved that honor this season, first with the Phantoms mitten toss, and tonight with Scott Hartnell Wig Night. Digi and I will be in attendance, hopefully among the first wave of adult fans so that we don't have to resort to subterfuging children to obtain theirs.

However, the trend of late has been for some of them to move into downtown Philly, particularly the Old City area. An NHL film crew caught up with Scott Hartnell to film him preparing a little of what he calls "chicken salad," which is not what you might think it is, but rather, some grilled chicken on a bed of greens.
