The Philadelphia Flyers, who have been performing well on the road, visited the Calgary Flames on New Year's Eve. The Flyers, with a strong road record, led 1-0 at the first intermission but ultimately lost 4-3. The Flyers have lost four of their last five games and have an overall record of 19-12-5. The Oilers defeated the Anaheim Ducks 7-2, with Warren Foegele having a career-best performance, scoring five points. The Flyers will face the Oilers in their next game. The Flyers' players and coach acknowledged their lethargic performance without making excuses, reflecting the team's new identity of hard work and accountability.
Made it to Edmonton. The Flyers decided to have an off day today for travel, practice is questionable for tomorrow. Puck drop tomorrow at 9 p.m. et. #LetsGoFlyers
None of the Flyers players nor John Tortorella were happy following a 4-3 loss in Calgary, Alberta. Foerster was noticeable but not impactful, Atkinson had his chances but couldn’t execute. #PHIvsCGY | #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/qiMO77PYCq
No one was happy last night following the loss to Calgary. The good thing is no one made any excuses either, and that is the new identity of this young Flyers team They play hard and work hard, my latest https://t.co/412DGltaed

After watching all the pressers from last night following the Flyers game. The players and Coach Tortorella did not offer any excuses for their lethargic and gassed play last night for a great majority of the game. That's exactly what's different about this team. Own it #Flyers

This is the new identity of the Flyers: "We never give up. Always don't feel like 100%, but we give all we have every single night." - Rasmus Ristolainen said following the Calgary game #Flyers
The Flyers have a travel day today. They do not have practice
Foegele finishes with a career-best five points, this goal off a perfect feed from Nurse. Oilers have won five in a row and close out 2023 13-3…wheels up to Edmonton, and ringing in 2024 at 30,000 feet. https://t.co/SdUIKrVzY4
Recap: Anaheim drops their final game of 2023, a 7-2 drubbing to the Oilers. Poor defensive coverage was the culprit for the lopsided result, something the Ducks won’t want to carry into 2024. #FlyTogether @SportingTrib https://t.co/Pk6T26EzMm

Hear from Head Coach John Tortorella following the Flyers 4-3 loss in Calgary. #PHIvsCGY https://t.co/Z4A7uv6KVE
Flyers fall to Flames, 4-3, on New Year's Eve. Flyers, somewhat quietly, have lost four of their last five games (1-2-2). They're 19-12-5 overall heading into 2024. They're 7-5-5 in games decided by one goal.
Flyers had a late push back and made things interesting but fall short 4-3 in a heartbreaker. Off to Edmonton to take on the Oilers on Tuesday night. #PHIvsCGY | #LetsGoFlyers
Final: Ducks 2, Oilers 7. Goals from Jones and Vatrano. Certainly not the way that Anaheim wanted to close out 2023. #FlyTogether
McDavid picks Mintyukov’s pocket at the blue line and races past him to get off a shot off on Gibson. Mintyukov takes a slashing penalty in the process. #FlyTogether
Foegele gets the gate for interference, Ducks to the power play. 2:53 left in this one. #FlyTogether
7-2 Oilers. Kulak beats Gibson on the glove side and then all havoc breaks loose afterwards. #FlyTogether
Man this trip is really taking a toll on the Flyers. Kind of surprised they are practicing tomorrow. They looked gassed, the D is on the same side of the ice and everything
Jonathan Huberdeau’s pointless drought is over at 12 games. He snaps it tonight with a great pass to Dennis Gilbert for the go-ahead goal at the ‘Dome tonight. #Flames lead the Flyers 2-1 in the third.
Ekholm and Strome get hooking and slashing penalties, respectively. Still 53 second on the power play for Anaheim. #FlyTogether
Warren Foegele's first four-point night of his career. Had two three-point outings as his career-best before. That second line of Foegele, McLeod and Draisaitl have combined for eight points already tonight. #Oilers
Warren Foegele has 2-2-4 so far tonight…first 4-point game of his NHL career
Desharnais heads to the box for holding. Ducks need something on this power play. #FlyTogether
Warren Foegele has 2 Goals-2 Assists tonight in Anaheim. Career night for Oiler winger.
The Flyers will practice at Winsport tomorrow at 1pm for all those Canadian Flyers fans trying to get a peak of the squad #Flyers
4-1 Oilers. Foegele converts a shot-pass from Nurse just as the penalty to Strome expires. #FlyTogether
3-1 Oilers. Edmonton gets some extended zone time and Draisaitl converts a one-timer from his off-wing near the goal line. #FlyTogether
Flyers lead Flames 1-0 at first intermission. Rasmus Ristolainen scored his first goal of the season. Samuel Ersson was real sharp in net. Flyers are 9-0-1 on the road when they score the game's first goal.
2-1 Oilers. Kane with a wraparound attempt. The puck glanced off an official behind the net by an official, reason Gibson didn’t know where the puck was. The netminder is not happy. #FlyTogether
Kulak with a dangerous hit on Ross Johnston, who goes crashing into the boards. The former gets an interference penalty. #FlyTogether
Going into tonight, the Flyers are below .500 against the Flames in the Stampede City. 24-29-9-2 with a 15.3 PP% and 79.6 PK%. Both clubs lead the league in shorthanded goals with 9. #PHIvsCGY | #LetsGoFlyers
