  Flyers are 0-5 after a shootout loss, and the trade chatter is louder

  The Flyers lost 3-2 in a shootout to Seattle last night, and the only number that really changes the mood today is the one in the standings: 0-5. They did rally from 2-0 down to get a point, but the winless start is still the story, and it comes with a short turnaround to Detroit on Thursday.

  Flyers hit a franchise-worst start and turn quickly to Seattle

  Flyers’ early skid, injuries, and Briere’s next call

  The Flyers are still winless through six games, and the bigger problem is how often they have looked out of sync while the losses pile up. Injuries to key players, plus a shaky mix of lineup changes, have made the start uglier and put Danny Briere’s next move under a microscope. Prospect notes offer a little relief, but the first team has to steady itself first.

  The Flyers are still looking for their first win after a 2-1 loss to Ottawa, but Thursday night was at least their best showing of the season so far, per Broad Street Hockey.

  Flyers show a little life, but the points still aren’t coming

  The Flyers are still winless after Thursday’s 2-1 loss in Ottawa, though the effort was better than some of the earlier games. The bigger story today is the same one that has been hanging over the start: Rick Tocchet is already reshuffling lines, and the fixes are not yet fixing much. Michael Bunting also made his Flyers debut, which gives the roster one more new name to watch.
