The Flyers’ quest to build on their promising showing of last season will include the customary preseason schedule. That slate will just be a bit shorter — and include fewer opponents — than in years past.
The team announced a four-game preseason schedule Monday that includes home-and-homes with the Washington Capitals (on the road Sept. 21, at Xfinity Mobile Arena on Sept. 26) and Boston Bruins (on the road Sept. 22, at home Sept. 24). Flyers training camp opens Sept. 17.

The Flyers played seven preseason games last season, going 3-4 ahead of their 43-27-12 regular season.
