Nick Deslauriers

The roster is seemingly set for the Flyers opening game of the 2023-24 season. It could be very veteran-heavy to start, despite multiple hopefuls making the roster. It will be a balancing act all season to get prospects the playing time needed to further development.

The Flyers closed out the preseason on Thursday night with a 5-2 win over the New York Islanders at Wells Fargo Center.

The Flyers conclude the road portion of the preseason schedule on Friday night against the Boston Bruins at 7 p.m.

A low-cost deal that could be flipped at the deadline? Take a flier on a low-risk, high-reward player looking for a chance? There are a few scenarios for the Flyers in free agency starting Saturday.

Behind a strong goaltending performance and two first-period goals, the Penguins were able to outlast the Flyers in a 4-2 decision.

Alex DeBrincat scored off a turnover by Felix Sandstrom in overtime to hand the Flyers a 5-4 loss to the Ottawa Senators and snap their winning streak at four games.

A shorthanded goal by Nick Deslauriers and another by Noah Cates pushed the Flyers ahead. They locked things down on defense the rest of the way. It all led to a 3-1 win over the Detroit Red Wings.

After another case of organizational malpractice at the trade deadline, the choice is in the hands of the Flyers highest-appointed figures. You can accept this reality of being the laughing stock of the NHL and accept the growing distance between yourself and as loyal a fanbase as there is in sports or you can finally do something about it. Time’s yours.

The Flyers are very much in a process. Chuck Fletcher admitted as much one day after John Tortorella continued his season-long message of building. Just don’t expect people to be vocal in their trust in it.

A goal by Wade Allison with 8:27 remaining put the Flyers ahead again for good, as the losing streak was snapped at four with a 4-3 win over the Flames on Monday afternoon.
