James van Riemsdyk scored a pair of goals, including one off his face in the second period, helping the Flyers grab a 3-2 win over the Rangers on Thursday night.

It was another disappointing season for the Flyers. Another slow start through the first 25 games. Another season of chasing in the standings. Another season of chasing the game on a nightly basis.

According to TSN’s Darren Dreger, the Flyers are in preliminary discussions with the Edmonton Oilers regarding a trade around goalie Cam Talbot.

If the Flyers did everything they could to eliminate chances in front of Carter Hart in the first two games of his career, they didn't do him any favors in his third game.

The Flyers did salvage a point out of this game against the much superior Columbus Blue Jackets, but it wasn't the type of performance that will keep the new GM from action.
