Brian Boucher was a fiery and emotional kid when he was drafted by the Flyers with the team's first pick in the 1995 entry draft.

The Flyers want and need Mike Knuble. Knuble wants to remain a Flyer. So why is the veteran right winger getting closer to becoming an unrestricted free agent? Money, of course.

Will the Flyers use the 21st overall pick in tomorrow's NHL draft to select a player who, down the road, will give their defense a boost? Or will they send that pick, along with some players on their current roster, for the rights to a proven defenseman such as Jay Bouwmeester, a potential free agent from Florida? Welcome to the intriguing two-day ...

With the Flyers having already made headlines due to the Ray Emery signing and rumors of others to follow, next week's draft doesn't seem to be getting much public play.

Could Jay Bouwmeester or Mike Komisarek be a Philadelphia Flyer by the end of next week? Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said Wednesday he believes the Florida Panthers will trade the rights to Bouwmeester prior to the June 26 NHL Draft.

Although some mock drafts have the Flyers selecting a goalie with their first-round pick next week, general manager Paul Holmgren said yesterday that the club probably would not choose a goaltender with its top choice.

Whitesboro native Robert Esche left the National Hockey League two years ago for Russia's Kontinental Hockey League when teams no longer wanted him as a starting goalie.

The Flyers are trying to bring the band back together, for a pretty decent price.

Another bizarre twist in goaltending may soon unfold in Philadelphia. Sources tell TSN former Flyers goaltender Robert Esche is on Philadelphia's radar and may be lured back from the Kontinental Hockey League where he was playing with SKA St.Petersburg. Philadelphia is one of a few teams believed to be interested in Esche, who spent four seasons ...

FOR THOSE harping annually and incessantly about the Flyers' need for an elite goalie, Chris Osgood is your nightmare.

THE FIRST TIME I covered a Flyers playoff game, I was backing up Les Bowen, or more to the point, I was like the fourth wheel in a five-spoke set.

When the Vancouver Canucks ponder their future with or without Roberto Luongo, they might want to consider the plight of the Philadelphia Flyers.

I may not always agree with him, but I like to think Paul Holmgren is a smart man.
