They had a 10-game losing streak in November, a five-game losing streak at the start of March and, after making the Stanley Cup Playoffs, lost 7-0 in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round to the Pittsburgh Penguins, a defeat that left them embarrassed, but not finished.
"We just don't really get down on ourselves," Flyers forward Jakub Voracek said.

Their resiliency is being tested again with center Sean Couturier, one of their most important players, possibly out for Game 4 at Wells Fargo Center on Wednesday (7 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, TVAS, NBCSP, ATTSN-PT). The Flyers trail the best-of-7 series 2-1.
Couturier, who centers the first line and plays on the first unit of the power play and penalty kill, sustained an apparent injury in a collision with defenseman Radko Gudas during practice Tuesday. Couturier was limping and needed assistance from trainer Jim McCrossin to get off the ice. Coach Dave Hakstol said Wednesday morning that Couturier would be a game-time decision.
Couturier, who had 76 points (31 goals, 45 assists) in 82 regular-season games, has three points (one goal, two assists) in the series and leads the Flyers forwards with 24:35 of ice time per game, including 4:34 shorthanded.
