Andrej Meszaros

The Flyers have the 23th overall pick in the NHL Draft on Tuesday night, and it marks the latest the Flyers have picked in the first round of the draft in over a decade. Despite that, the 23rd pick can still produce some high-end talent.

PHILADELPHIA — The TV was on in the Flyers’ locker room, tuned in to coverage of the NHL trade deadline as if it were the forecast for a big storm. “It’s not ’til 11:30 that it really hits,” Jake Voracek said. (Listen to Flyers insider Dave Isaac on the Sports Bash discuss the Andrew MacDonald trade) He was right on...

TAMPA, FLA. — No one on the roster has been shy about saying it: December is certainly not the most wonderful time of year for the Flyers. With 11 of 15 games on the road in the last calendar month, and six of those being against Western Conference teams, the Flyers have a tall order...

NEWARK, N.J. -- Ray Emery gave up four goals on 15 shots in 22:47 of playing time, and even had a fight Friday against Washington. On Saturday against New Jersey, he showed a different kind of fight.

PHILADELPHIA — Three games remain in the Flyers’ preseason schedule, and defenseman Andrej Meszaros couldn’t be happier for an opportunity to show he can still play.

For days Andrej Meszaros has trotted on the ice for practice, cleared by team doctors for contact, but unable to feel like he can go in a game situation. After a hard-contact, 25-minute practice, the 27-year-old defenseman rolled his eyes when asked again...

The already mediocre Philadelphia Flyers defense got thinner today after the team announced that Andrej Meszaros, who was coming off back surgery last season will be out indefinitely with a torn Achilles tendon suffered while training in Slovakia last week...

Flyers GM Paul Holmgren is hopeful that Nicklas Grossmann will return to the ice this weekend but doesn't expect to have Andrej Meszaros return from an injured back until at least the second round of the playoffs, should the Flyers get that far.

Andrej Meszaros will undergo back surgery and will miss anywhere from six-to-eight weeks of the season and most likely the first round of the playoffs.

With what is being described as a lower-body injury, Kimmo Timonen will be out of action indefinitely.
