Carter Hart

One day after the players offered their thoughts on another lost season for the Flyers, GM Chuck Fletcher offered his thoughts.

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.

The season will ultimately be known for the failure to meet expectations, to take that next step in the development of a contender, and the massive fallout behind it.

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

The Flyers didn't carry the play for most of the night, but took advantage of the opportunities they had to keep hanging around in the playoff picture with a 4-1 win over the Islanders.

For a change, the Flyers got off to a quick start and never looked back, leading nearly wire to wire in a 5-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres.

The Flyers announced on Saturday morning that goalie Carter Hart will be out at least 10 days with a lower-body injury.

For the Flyers, this would be a great spot to announce their presence as a team that should content down the road.

The Flyers gave up three goals in the first period again, then two more in the second, to essentially turn this one into garbage time.
