Philadelphia Flyers in South Jersey

Gritty, the mascot for the Philadelphia Flyers that everyone loves to talk about, just won a big award.

On Thursday, the NHL officially announced that the Flyers will face the Chicago Blackhawks to open the 2019-20 season in Prague, Czech Republic.

When it came down to it, the Flyers ran out of gas. Montreal was the hungrier team early, opened up the lead and let their goaltender do the rest.

The Flyers did what they had to against the Ottawa Senators: win.

Jake Voracek will miss Monday's game against the Ottawa Senators and Thursday's game against the Washington Capitals.

The Flyers didn't get much help in the playoff race, but did close the margin to five points with another convincing win over the Islanders.

First things first -- before you can discuss the other teams in this picture, the Flyers have to focus on the task at hand, and it’s the same as it was for the last month and a half: just win.

According to reports, the Flyers will open their 2019-20 season with a European trip.

The Flyers had Monday off, but there were injury concerns that needed to be addressed ahead of Wednesday's game against the Capitals.

As it stands entering Tuesday’s NHL action, the Flyers are five points out of a playoff spot with 16 games to go.
