Philadelphia Flyers 2026-27 season outlook

Written 28 September 2026. Philadelphia open 2026-27 at home to Pittsburgh on 30 September, the earliest start in club history and a rematch of the first-round series they won in April. Nearly all of last season’s roster is back. Porter Martone, who had 10 points in his first nine NHL games after signing out of Michigan State in March and scored the winner in each of his first two playoff games, begins his first full season as a preseason Calder Trophy candidate.

Last season ended a five-year playoff drought. The Flyers went 43-27-12 for 98 points and finished third in the Metropolitan Division after an 18-7-1 run that followed the Olympic break, then beat Pittsburgh in six games before Carolina swept them in the second round. Travis Konecny led the team with 68 points, Owen Tippett scored 28 goals and Trevor Zegras set career highs with 26 goals and 67 points.

On 16 June the Flyers sent goalie Samuel Ersson, defenceman Emil Andrae and a third-round pick to Toronto for goalie Joseph Woll and defenceman Simon Benoit. Garnet Hathaway was traded to Florida, Noah Juulsen left for Colorado and Noel Acciari signed as a free agent. Anaheim matched the Flyers’ offer sheet to centre Leo Carlsson on 9 July, and Zegras, Tyson Foerster, Jamie Drysdale and Dan Vladař all signed new contracts. The Flyers drafted defenceman Maksim Sokolovskii 27th overall.

Vladař started 51 games in his first season as a No. 1 and finished with a 2.42 goals-against average, then saved .922 in the playoffs. He is day-to-day with an upper-body injury but practised fully on 27 September and is expected to be ready for the opener. Woll, who saved .899 for Toronto last season, is the backup, and Denver Barkey and Helge Grans are day-to-day with lower-body injuries.

The power play ranked last in the NHL for the fourth time in five seasons, at 15.7 per cent, and general manager Daniel Brière has said the fix will have to come from players already on the roster. Matvei Michkov, who led the Flyers with 22 points after the Olympic break but managed a single assist in the playoffs, arrived at camp lighter after changing his training and diet. On Bet99’s July board the Flyers were +5000 for the Stanley Cup, 19th of 32.

Where to watch Flyers games in Canada

Counting the NHL’s own listings for the 84 regular-season games, 13 on Sportsnet, 13 on TVA Sports, 12 on Sportsnet+, 3 on Sportsnet One, 1 on RDSI and 1 on Sportsnet 360. Regional listings add 3 on Sportsnet Pacific, 2 on TSN5, 2 on Sportsnet West, 2 on Sportsnet East, 2 on TSN3, 1 on RDS2, 1 on TSN4, 1 on TSN2 and 1 on RDS. 38 games have no Canadian network in the NHL’s listings. A game can appear on more than one channel, so the counts overlap, and listings change through the season.

Of the 38 games without a Canadian network, 27 are the Flyers’ US regional broadcasts and 11 are US national games. In Canada, Rogers holds the out-of-market rights, so those games stream on Sportsnet+ Premium, which is sold on its own rather than through a TV package, and NHL Centre Ice through a TV provider is the other route. Blackouts apply.

Philadelphia Flyers roster 2026-27

The current Flyers roster has 25 players, nine of them born in Canada. Until opening night this is the club’s training-camp list, so it shrinks as players are sent down before the season starts. The status column shows any player on the injury report.

Philadelphia Flyers odds and how the market sees them

The Flyers markets with the most depth are the season-long futures: the Stanley Cup, the Eastern Conference, the Metropolitan Division, a regular-season points total and a yes-or-no price on making the playoffs. On Bet99’s board on 30 July 2026 the Flyers were +5000 to win the Stanley Cup, 19th of the 32 teams on the board after last season’s run to the second round. Our Stanley Cup odds page carries the current prices for all 32 teams.

Three things move a Flyers price during the season. The starting goalie matters most, and the injury section above tracks him. The schedule is next: the Flyers play 12 back-to-backs, and second nights are where tired legs and backup goalies show up in the lines. Then there is form, which our power rankings measure each week, and the race itself in the playoff picture. Picks for the weekend slate are in our Saturday predictions column.

These are the NHL sportsbooks we rate for Canadians, listed by province, with the full comparison on our NHL betting sites page:

Philadelphia Flyers history

The Flyers were part of the 1967 expansion that doubled the NHL from six teams to 12. Ed Snider, then a vice-president of the Philadelphia Eagles, put the ownership group together, and his sister Phyllis suggested the name. The Flyers lost their first game 5-1 to the California Seals on 11 October 1967 but won the new West Division that season, even though storm damage to the Spectrum’s roof forced them to play their last seven home games elsewhere. They drafted Bobby Clarke in 1969 and hired Fred Shero as coach in 1971.

Clarke became captain in January 1973, the season the team was nicknamed the Broad Street Bullies, and with Bernie Parent in goal the Flyers became the first of the 1967 expansion teams to win the Stanley Cup. They beat Boston in six games in 1974, clinching 1-0 at the Spectrum on 19 May, and Buffalo in six in 1975, and Parent, who died in September 2025, was playoff MVP both times. Montréal swept them in the 1976 Final. The 1979-80 team went 35 games without a loss, 25 wins and 10 ties, an NHL record that still stands, then lost the Final to the New York Islanders in six games. Edmonton beat the Flyers in the Final in 1985 and again in seven games in 1987, Detroit swept Eric Lindros’s team in 1997, and in 2010 they came back from 3-0 down against Boston in the second round before losing the Final to Chicago in six.

The Flyers’ last series win before 2026 came in the 2020 bubble, where they beat Montréal in six games before the Islanders won a seven-game second round. They then missed the playoffs five years in a row, matching the franchise’s longest drought, traded captain Claude Giroux to Florida in March 2022 and named Sean Couturier the 20th captain in club history in February 2024. John Tortorella was fired in March 2025, and Rick Tocchet, a former Flyers forward, replaced him in May. In 2025-26 the Flyers went 18-7-1 after the Olympic break, clinched a playoff place with a shootout win over Carolina on 13 April 2026 and finished third in the Metropolitan Division with 98 points. They beat Pittsburgh in six games, the last a 1-0 overtime win on Cam York’s goal on 29 April, before Carolina, the eventual Stanley Cup champions, swept them in the second round.

Most famous player: Bobby Clarke

Clarke grew up in Flin Flon, Manitoba, and NHL teams worried about his type 1 diabetes, so he lasted until the second round of the 1969 draft, where Philadelphia took him 17th overall. He was named captain in January 1973, aged 23 and the youngest captain in NHL history at the time, and that season he became the first player from the 1967 expansion teams to score 100 points and to win the Hart Trophy. He led the Broad Street Bullies to the Stanley Cup in 1974 and 1975.

He won the Hart again in 1975 and 1976, took the Selke Trophy as the best defensive forward in 1983 and played all 15 of his NHL seasons in Philadelphia. His club records for games (1,144), assists (852) and points (1,210) still stand. The Flyers retired his No. 16 on 15 November 1984, and the Hockey Hall of Fame inducted him in 1987. He also served as the club’s general manager from 1984 to 1990 and from 1994 to 2006.

Bobby Clarke’s Flyers totals, from the NHL’s official statistics: 1,144 games, 358 goals, 852 assists and 1,210 points.

Stanley Cups

The Flyers have won two Stanley Cups: 1974, 1975. They have lost the Final six times since 1927, most recently in 2010.
