FINALLY. The Flyers schedule has been released.

The Flyers start the season with a nice little 4-game homestead where they’ll open up January 13th against the rival, Pittsburgh Penguins.

Game 1: Home vs Pittsburgh on January 13th

Game 2: Home vs Pittsburgh on January 15th

Game 3: Home vs Buffalo on January 18th

Game 4: Home vs Buffalo on January 19th

Though they’re no fans for any home team this year, it’s still nice to see the Flyers open up at home finally. At least they don’t have to travel very far too open up the season, being we opened up last season in an entirely different country. I’m sure it was a great experience for the players (especially Voracek) and it’s cool to see the NHL trying to market the game in any way (finally), the Flyers just have always seemed to get the short end of the stick when it comes to opening up the season.

2019-20 season : Technically a “home game” but in Prague

2018-19 season : @ Vegas

2017-18 season: @ Sharks

2016-17 season: @ Kings

2015-16 season : @ Lightning

2014-15 season: @ Boston

2013-14 season: Home vs Toronto

It’s just funny that now we get a 4-game home stretch to open the season and nobody is going to be there to watch. Still, I think it’s got to be refreshing to veterans like Giroux and Voracek knowing you don’t have to travel anywhere but to your car this year.

The Flyers have eight back to back games over the the entire 56-game season. First one is pretty early on in the season having to face Buffalo January 18th and 19th.

January 18-19th vs Buffalo

January 30-31st vs Islanders

March 17th @ Rangers and March 18th @ Islanders

March 29-30th @ Buffalo

April 5-6th vs Boston

April 17th vs Washington and 18th vs Islanders

May 3-4th vs Pittsburgh

May 7-8th @ Washington

The Flyers were 1-1-1 last season vs Pittsburgh. Getting blown out in the first matchup of the season 7-1.

Game 1: 7-1 L

Game 2: 3-0 W

Game 3: 4-3 L (OT)

It should be a good start to the season, jumping right back into heated division games vs the hated Penguins. You have players like Kevin Hayes saying things like this.

This season is going to be a ton of fun. Bad blood games between teams who’re eventually going to get familiar with each others play styles. Whatever team works the hardest is going to come out on-top, another thing Hayes mentioned.

It’s all going to come down to the team that works the hardest and whatever coach can get his guys going in such short time.

Lets get thing rollin’! Go Flyers!
