Philadelphia Flyers Announce Full 2025-26 Season Schedule

The Philadelphia Flyers have officially released their complete 2025-26 National Hockey League (NHL) regular season schedule. The team will play 82 games in total, 41 at home and 41 on the road, in what will be their 58th season. The schedule opens on Thursday, October 9, on the road against the two-time defending Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers – the third straight season the Flyers begin on the road and the sixth time they’ve opened a season against a reigning Stanley Cup winner.

The home opener is scheduled for Monday, October 13, also against Florida, which will be the fifth time the Flyers have hosted the Panthers in their home opener, with Philadelphia holding a 3-1-0 record in those previous matchups.

The team is scheduled to play 14 back-to-back sets during the season, compared to 13 in the 2024-25 campaign. The Flyers will also play three games in four nights on 19 occasions and four games in six nights 24 times.

Current sports betting markets have listed the Flyers at +10000 to win the Stanley Cup and +5000 to win the Eastern Conference, according to odds tracked by BetMGM and Vegas Insider. In game-specific markets, sportsbooks such as PointsBet have regularly placed the Flyers at +1.5 on the puck line with -110 pricing, while moneyline odds in typical matchups are around +155. Over/under totals for Flyers games commonly appear at 5.5 goals.

Recent roster changes include the trade of Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee to Calgary. The team has also been linked to the pursuit of a left-shot defenseman, though no acquisition has been confirmed.

The 2025-26 schedule includes several player and coach returns. On November 1, Scott Laughton is scheduled to return to Philadelphia as a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee, now with the Calgary Flames, will play in Philadelphia on November 2. Christian Dvorak will return to Montreal as a Flyer on November 4. Dan Vladar is scheduled to face his former team in Calgary on December 31.

On January 6, Ryan Poehling will return to Philadelphia with the Anaheim Ducks. That game also features Cutter Gauthier’s second visit to Philadelphia since being traded. Jakub Pelletier may return to Philadelphia with Tampa Bay on January 10 and January 12, if on the active roster. Trevor Zegras is scheduled to return to Anaheim on March 18. Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet will return to Vancouver on December 30.

Other events include a potential appearance by No. 1 overall pick Matthew Schaefer with the New York Islanders on October 25. The Flyers are scheduled to play the Penguins on October 28, a date expected to be part of the NHL’s Frozen Frenzy with all 32 teams in action.

The Flyers will not host a game on Black Friday for the first time since 2005 in a full 82-game schedule. This is due to the Philadelphia Eagles hosting the Chicago Bears that afternoon.

Philadelphia’s final game before the Olympic break is February 5 at home against Ottawa. They return from the break on February 25 at Washington.

The regular season concludes on April 14 at home against the Montreal Canadiens.
