While the NHL’s best teams fight their way through the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Philadelphia Flyers will focus on a critical offseason that will reshape their franchise.
The final game for the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2022-2023 season ended in a road victory against the Chicago Blackhawks, 5-4. Ivan Provorov scored the game-winner, driving the nail into Jonathan Toews’ last game in a Blackhawks sweater.
Veteran defenseman Justin Braun has officially announced his retirement from the NHL after 13 seasons, the NHL Alumni Association said Monday.
The Philadelphia Flyers’ season, which fell apart with a 10-game losing streak in November, ended on a positive note Thursday in Chicago. Flyers 5, Blackhawks 4.
The Edmonton Oilers need depth and physicality. There’s no better place for them to look than the Philadelphia Flyers, who will be looking to trade whatever assets they can to help their future.
The Flyers should be fascinating to follow in 2022-23.
Braun is a returning face for the Flyers, as he spent parts of the past three seasons in Philadelphia before he was dealt to the New York Rangers at the deadline.
The Lightning’s dynasty will not end, or at least not today, as Steven Stamkos scored both goals in their 2-1 win in Game 6 over the Rangers to send the Bolts to their third straight Stanley Cup Final.
The Philadelphia Flyers got just what they needed when they acquired Justin Braun in 2019. He wasn’t brought in to play top-line minutes, but that’s what he ended up doing in 2021-22.
The NHL Trade Deadline passed at 3 p.m. on Monday. The Flyers had already made their biggest move on Saturday when they sent longtime captain Claude Giroux to Florida, but they had other pieces that were certainly on the market and available.
Claude Giroux and Gerry Mayhew weren’t the only Philadelphia Flyers to move before the 2022 NHL Trade Deadline. Chuck Fletcher dealt Justin Braun to the New York Rangers for a 2023 third-round draft pick.
The New York Rangers have made an interesting defensive addition, acquiring Justin Braun from the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Edmonton Oilers are being viewed as a team that wants to do a lot but doesn’t have the cap space to do much and their GM has publicly said he’s not going to spend big this season to add a rental.
At this point of the regular season, the Philadelphia Flyers have a disappointing 18-29-10 record and are at the bottom of the Metropolitan Division. With this, they are understandably expected to be sellers at the trade deadline.
Last night had all the makings of a close game. Reading the tea leaves, neither of these teams are scoring in droves. Somewhere between the new and improved spicy brown mustard at the Wells Fargo Center press box with a soft pretzel, I believed the Philadelphia Flyers were going to bring the early heat.
For teams looking at adding depth to their blue line and a player with a ton of playoff experience, Justin Braun of the Philadelphia Flyers makes a lot of sense.
Claude Giroux isn’t the only name generating a little buzz for the Philadelphia Flyers ahead of the trade deadline. There are a few others worth a mention.
The market for defensively sound depth defensemen is always a hot one, especially around the trade deadline as teams assess their deficiencies as they prepare for playoff runs.
Despite the season being just half over, the Philadelphia Flyers will have a mountain to climb to get themselves into the playoff picture. With that said, the most likely candidate to be moved off of their roster comes in the form of a defensively reliable Justin Braun.
Not even a puck to the face can keep Ryan Getzlaf out of action. Justin Braun flipped a puck in the air that hit Getzlaf in the face during Game 2 of the first round playoff series between the San Jose Sharks and Anaheim Ducks on Saturday.
