After playing nine of the last 10 games on the road, the Flyers will certainly welcome being back on home ice for the next four games. The first home game of 2026 is certainly one that has been circled on the calendar once again.

The Flyers are set to face off against the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night, and both sides have players looking to make statements to former teams.

The Flyers ended the road trip with arguably their best win of the season, defeating the Oilers. It’s been the opposite for the Ducks, who have lost six straight games and 10 of their last 12.

Game time is at 7 p.m.

Trevor Zegras faces his former team for the first time on Tuesday night as the current leading scorer on the Flyers with 39 points in 40 games. Zegras has gone six straight games without a goal and been held without a point in three of the last four games.

Cutter Gauthier has put together a strong season, but slowed down recently. The former Flyers draft pick has just three points in his last nine games and four goals in his last 17 games.
