FINALLY! The Philadelphia Flyers’ long national nightmare is over, as the Orange and Black earned a regulation win for the first time since December 9. Nikita Grebenkin opened the scoring for the Flyers late in the second, and goals from Grundstrom, Dvorak, Tippett, and Michkov sealed the victory for the Flyguys. Steve, Kelly, and Charlie break down the Flyers’ last home game of 2025, their upcoming schedule, and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What a game...of course Artemi Panarin opened up the scoring late in the first, but then rookie Denver Barkey scored 2 points in 2 shifts, giving Sam Ersson and the Flyers a much-needed 3-1 lead. However, the Orange and Black blew the lead once again, and couldn't convert on two power plays in overtime. Panarin's 2 goals, Flyers' killer Mika Zibanejad's lone goal, and a shutout in the shootout sealed the New York Rangers' victory. Steve and Petey break down the loss, Trevor Zegras' point streak, the power play, and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We’re wrapping up the work week with a mailbag! We have Philadelphia Flyers questions ranging from Danny Briere’s plans this season and this summer, to looking back at Steve Mason’s tenure, and whether he could’ve beat the Rangers in 2014 if fully healthy. Bill & Steve discuss the past, present and future of the Flyers, as well as discuss Charlie’s interview with Philly’s GM. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Despite a highlight reel assist by Trevor Zegras and a 2-1 lead with under five minutes remaining in the second period, the Philadelphia Flyers choked away a game after dominating most of the first 30 minutes. Sam Ersson wasn’t great, but this one is on the offense, which was unable to beat Sam Ersson with a plethora of shots and chances before the Sabres’ skaters woke up. Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the loss, the Flyers’ fourth in the last five games. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

After thinking rehab would get the job done in 2-3 months, it was announced today that Tyson Foerster is out five months as he’s now recovering from surgery on his injured arm. Bill, Kelly, and a checking-in-from the road Charlie discuss how the Philadelphia Flyers should go about replacing Foerster now that the duration is concrete. Plus, a look at the power play and Owen Tippett’s “contributions” as well as Matvei Michkov’s linemates, and more! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Carl Grundstrom needed very little time to take advantage of his promotion into the top-9, scoring his third goal in five games since his recall. Trevor Zegras scored on a 2-on-1 and Bobby Brink netted a goal off of a Matvei Michkov steal behind the net to give the Flyers a 3-1 lead after 40 minutes.

It happened! After months of rumors, the Vancouver Canucks sent star defenseman Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for Marco Rossi, Zeev Buium, Liam Ohgren, and a 2026 first-round pick. After the Flyers reportedly inquired about the star, why couldn't Danny Briere and company make the deal? Would it have taken Porter Martone or Matvei Michkov to get it done? Did drafting Jett Luchanko prevent the Flyers from making the trade? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers have lost 3 consecutive games for the first time this season, albeit they’ve earned a point in each. Trevor Zegras and Dan Vladar starred in a comeback for the Flyers, but Zegras couldn’t convert his shootout attempt, and Vladar surrendered the only goal of the skills competition, allowing the Canes to escape with another win over the Flyers, their 8th straight. Charlie & Bill break down the loss, discussing some of Rick Tocchet’s coaching decisions, Nikita Grebenkin’s roster spot, Matvei Michkov’s linemates, and more!

The Philadelphia Flyers have not beaten the Carolina Hurricanes in South Philly since March 5, 2020, having dropped eight straight to Rod Brind’Amour’s squad heading into this game. Trevor Zegras and his teammates seemed determined to break that streak in the first, opening up a two goal lead through 20 minutes. But a dominant second allowed the Canes to tie it. The teams traded goals in the third and for the 12th time this season we got OT! Thanks to Sam Ersson, Philly survived the 3v3 and sent it to a shootout, aka the Trevor Zegras show. Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the loss, and what consecutive L’s mean as a string of road games approach. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dec 12

The Philadelphia Flyers played perfectly even with the Stanley Cup-contending Vegas Golden Knights through 60 minutes, going to OT tied at 2 and with matching shot totals. But a Travis Konecny giveaway in front of Dan Vladar proved fatal in the 3v3, allowing Jack Eichel and Mark Stone to connect for the winner. Bill, Kelly & Charlie break down the loss, including solid performances from Trevor Zegras, Travis Sanheim, and Vladar. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We’ve got a jam-packed show today, as suddenly the national hockey media can’t stop talking about the Philadelphia Flyers. Elliotte Friedman is talking Owen Tippett, Paul Bisonette is talking Matvei Michkov, and we’re here to break down all the rumors, likely and not-so-much.

The Philadelphia Flyers dominated most of the first two periods against Macklin Celebrini and the San Jose Sharks, continuing their streak of strong play following a loss. But a hesitant third period gave San Jose life, but Dan Vladar was up to the task once again, notching his 11th win in 17 starts this season. Charlie, Kelly & Bill break down the win, sharing their thoughts on the fourth line’s big night, Vladar’s heroics, the Matvei Michkov of it all, and more! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The NHL-best Colorado Avalanche got the best of Sam Ersson, as goals from Brent Burns, Brock Nelson, and Valeri Nichuskin secured the victory for the Avs over the Philadelphia Flyers. Sean Couturier and Nick Seeler both had milestones for the Orange and Black, playing in their 900th and 400th career games respectively, and Sean Couturier did open the scoring for the game early in the 1st.

Quinn Hughes of the Vancouver Canucks has been subject to lots of trade rumors with reports Hughes may not sign a long-term extension with the team after his contract expires in 2027. With his connection to Philadelphia Flyers' head coach Rick Tocchet, and relationships with Trevor Zegras and Cam York, could Danny Briere and the Orange and Black trade for the talented defensemen?

In the aftermath of a big 5-2 Flyers victory over the Buffalo Sabres, Charlie and Steve turn their attention to the three Russians on the team: Matvei Michkov, Egor Zamula, and Nikita Grebenkin. One appears to be finding his form, one is struggling to regain his, and the other is getting a big opportunity to show he can stick in a larger role. Can Michkov keep it up? Where does Zamula fit? Is Grebenkin poised to breakout now that he’s off the 4th line? The PHLY Flyers crew breaks it all down. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers have done it again, not only rebounding from a rough loss, but scoring a bunch of goals in quick succession, netting three goals in 59 seconds after falling behind 1-0 in the first period and take ahold of the game. Matvei Michkov, Bobby Brink, Travis Konecny and a bunch of others put up multi-point nights, while Trevor Zegras scored and survived a Rasmus Dahlin major-worthy boarding.

Dec 2

The Philadelphia Flyers are coming off a disappointing outing against the Pittsburgh Penguins, following a successful 4-game road trip. So we’ve got a lot to talk about as the calendar flips to December and the FlyGuys still find themselves very much in Stanley Cup Playoff contention. Tyson Foerster’s injury in the Pens game on Monday night is a major concern, and how the organization addresses the roster spot, perhaps by calling up Alex Bump from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, is a major point of concern for fans. As is the recent rumors surrounding Danny Briere’s pursuit of players from Rick Tocchet’s former team, the Vancouver Canucks. Charlie & Bill address all this and more, plus solicit donations from the audience, on this episode! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Sidney Crosby opened the scoring in this game, and added a second goal in the second period, to defeat the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday night. Tyson Foerster scored a 5-on-3 power play goal and left with an upper-body injury on a one-timer on the same power play to add injury to insult. Charlie, Bill & Steve break down the loss, including the struggling penalty kill, Dan Vladar’s performance, what the TyFo injury could mean, and much more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It wasn’t easy, and the Philadelphia Flyers nearly blew another 3-goal lead, but Dan Vladar held on to preserve Philly’s lead, built by goals from Owen Tippett, Matvei Michkov and Travis Konecny, to beat the New Jersey Devils 5-3 and hand NJ their first regulation loss at home this season. Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the win, discussing Trevor Zegras’ up-and-down game, Michkov & TK heating up, Tippett’s 100th career goal, and more! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers scored first for the first time in ten games, and opened up a 3-0 lead by the time 22 minutes had elapsed, on goals from Tyson Foerster, Sean Couturier and Trevor Zegras. But in true Flyers/Islanders fashion, the Isles scored three consecutive in the second period to tie the game. So after tying their season-long streak of three straight games ending in regulation, the Flyers once again went to overtime. Of course, 65 minutes wasn’t enough and we got to a shootout where Zegras, Ersson and TK team up to win it for Philly. Charlie & Bill break down the win, discussing Michkov, Foerster, and more!

What a night! After falling behind 2-0 to the Florida Panthers, it was a huge second period for Emil Andrae and the late heroics of Tyson Foerster that lift the Philadelphia Flyers over the Cats, 4-2 in Sunrise.

This was as low-event as a game could be in terms of highlights. Nic Deslauriers’ first period fight was the only thing that registered as a Philadelphia “highlight” in the opening 40 minutes. Sam Ersson battled through a sleepy game with a solid-enough outing against the Lightning, but with no help from Trevor Zegras, Matvei Michkov or Tyson Foerster, this was one of those games that brings Orange & Black expectations down to earth. Charlie & Bill break down the loss, and Rick Tocchet’s options to try to get this team scoring more consistently. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

WHAT A NIGHT IN SOUTH PHILLY! After allowing the first goal for the seventh straight game the Philadelphia Flyers caught fire, scoring four goals in the first period, including 3 in 26 seconds and 2 by Tyson Foerster within 17 seconds to open up a big lead. From there, Dan Vladar was solid, Bobby Brink and Trevor Zegras added some insurance goals, and the Flyers put a big number up on one of the Eastern Conference’s best teams. Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the win, discussing TyFo’s big night, Matvei Michkov timing his break perfectly to score in his 100th career NHL game and NOT GOING TO OT!

With the Maple Leafs' shaky start, should Danny Briere and the Flyers keep or trade their top-10 protected 2027 1st round pick from the Scott Laughton trade?

Did you think it was possible for a Philadelphia Flyers game to end in regulation? LOL. Of course the Flyers went to overtime for the 4th time in 5 games and 9th time in 19 overall. Once again, the Orange & Black started slow, falling behind 2-0 in the first. Fortunately, Dan Vladar was excellent, allowing the comeback. Rodrigo Abols and Tyson Foerster scored to tie the game at two and Travis Sanheim scored the winner to send the Philly faithful home happy!

It has been a little while since our last mailbag episode, and with the full gang in studio today, we’re answering YOUR QUESTIONS! Many of them dealt with the same subject- which wingers (Owen Tippett, Porter Martone, Bobby Brink, Travis Konecny, etc) should be traded to either make room for Alex Bump, Denver Barkey and the next wave of LWs & RWs, or to add the help they need at both center and defense. Other questions ask for updates on Jett Luchanko, Jack Nesbitt and other Flyers prospects, while others are just funny. Plus, a conversation on Sam Ersson from an article Charlie has written.

When healthy, Tyson Foerster, Bobby Brink and Noah Cates have basically been inseparable as a line for the better part of a calendar year. And for good reason- they’ve been amongst the Flyers’ most consistent producers from when John Tortorella put them together through the beginning of Rick Tocchet’s tenure. Now slumping, however, Charlie & Bill discuss whether it is time to break the trio up, and look for one or more of them to play alongside other teammates. Is Foerster the perfect complement to Matvei Michkov? Could Brink get more offensive opportunities with Travis Konecny? Plus, we talk Adam Ginning’s conditioning stint with the Phantoms, Alex Bump’s likelihood to get promoted to the Philadelphia Flyers, and more! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers had a split weekend, putting on one hell of a show in their shootout win over the St. Louis Blues, and then looking completely out-classed in their loss to the Dallas Stars. Coming out of the 2-game trip, the Flyers won’t play again until Thursday, meaning we’ll have time to get into some odds and ends with this team, starting with a minor (?) trade Danny Briere made with the Ottawa Senators to swap Dennis Gilbert for an unsigned RFA Maxence Guenette. Charlie & Bill will also discuss Christian Dvorak, and his linemates Owen Tippett and Trevor Zegras, the goalie situation, and, of course, Matvei Michkov. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers were flat-out bad on Saturday night. There was a stark difference between the still young and rebuilding Flyers and the Cup-contending Dallas Stars, and the travel/schedule certainly didn’t help either. But regardless, Philly was never in this game. Join Bill Matz and Charlie O'Connor, as the PHLY Flyers crew breaks down all the action from tonight's matchup between the Philadelphia Flyers and the Dallas Stars.

That was wild! The Philadelphia Flyers erased a pair of 2-goal deficits to force yet another game to overtime, and then, following a failed OT penalty shot for Trevor Zegras, took the shootout, with Zegras being the lone scorer.

Nov 13

The Philadelphia Flyers were thoroughly outclassed for much of the first two periods of the game, but Dan Vladar continuing his early-season Vezina chase, and Matvei Michkov scoring on the power play gave the Orange & Black a chance and it seemed like Travis Konecny won it but an offside review took away the winner and Edmonton netted the winner in OT.

The Philadelphia Flyers took a chance on trading for Trevor Zegras, and thus far it has paid off. So well, in fact that now the discussion surrounding Zegras is how soon Danny Briere can get him signed to a long-term contract. Charlie & Bill discuss the Zegras contract situation, comparables and scenarios that the Flyers are weighing ahead of finalizing an extension.

All the talk on social media this weekend was about the perceived criticism by Philadelphia Flyers captain Sean Couturier directed towards Matvei Michkov in Saturday’s postgame scrum. Coots mentioned Michkov “playing the right way” and it benefitting the team, seemingly complimenting the 20-year-old sophomore, but many Flyers fans took it as a shot at the franchise’s future cornerstone. Charlie & Bill break down the controversy, playing clips from Coots, Michkov and head coach Rick Tocchet, and discuss the dynamics of the Philly locker room.

After another slow start for the Philadelphia Flyers that saw the home team fall down 2-0, the Orange & Black fought back to take complete control of the second half of the game, tying it on goals from Matvei Michkov and Jamie Drysdale to force overtime, while allowing only one shot on goal for the final 28 minutes of regulation.

The puck dropped on the NHL season on October 7th. One month later, the Philadelphia Flyers are in an Eastern Conference playoff spot! Dan Vladar has been mostly very good, Trevor Zegras looks like a star, Cam York, Noah Cates, Bobby Brink and Tyson Foerster (prior to the injury) all look like they’re taking steps in their careers, and pretty much all is well for Rick Tocchet’s squad. Except for the Matvei Michkov of it all. Philly’s sophomore winger is off to a disappointing start. Today, Charlie & Bill discuss how the Flyers are adapting to Rick Tocchet’s style, how they can generate more shots on goal, the successes of Danny Briere’s summer moves, and what we’ve seen from Michkov, positive and negative.

The game started out as a shooting gallery in Philadelphia’s end, with only Dan Vladar seemingly awake for the first 15 minutes or so of the first period. Vladar surrendered one that ping-ponged off 2 men in front, but was the sole reason the Flyers were in the game. From there, Matvei Michkov and Noah Cates tallied goals and the Flyers earned a hard-fought victory.

Trevor Zegras has been a revelation to start his first season in Philadelphia, leading the team in assists, points and power play points through the team’s first 13 games. The Flyers power play, thanks largely to the addition of Zegras, is over 20% and looks greatly improved from the group that has run under 14% in the previous 4 seasons. Charlie, Kelly & Bill look at the best and worst of the first month on the Flyers season, highlighting Zegras, PP success, Matvei Michkov, Dan Vladar and Noah Cates.

What a wild freakin’ game. The Philadelphia Flyers opened up a 3-0 lead in the first period, getting 2 points from Bobby Brink, Trevor Zegras and Cam York. And then they gave up 4 in the second, only for Nikita Grebenkin to tie the game and force overtime in the 3rd. The Flyers won in a shootout thanks to Dan Vladar and the magic of Zegras, and that was ridiculous.

What a slog of a game. After a 3-shot first period for the Philadelphia Flyers, things didn’t get much better over the following 40 minutes, and the Flyers dropped a home game to the NHL’s last place Calgary Flames. Jonathan Huberdeau scored twice for the Flames, and Dustin Wolf was up to the task on the few occasions the Flyers got anything through to him, as Matvei Michkov, Owen Tippett and basically every other forward was invisible for pretty much the entire game.

Well, things were going so well, it was bound to come back around.

Matvei Michkov & Trevor Zegras turned in their best performances of the young season on Thursday night, combining for 2 goals and 3 assists in a game that saw Sean Couturier leave with what may be an arm injury after the first period. In what has become a habit for the new Flyers goaltender, Dan Vladar was very strong once again, especially through the first 30 minutes when the Flyers didn’t seem to have the jump they’ve had recently. Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the win, discussing the big nights for Zegras and Michkov, Jamie Drysdale picking up his first goal of the game, and what the Samu Tuomaala trade could mean for Emil Andrae’s NHL status.

The Philadelphia Flyers mostly outplayed the Pittsburgh Penguins, who’d won 7 of their first 10 entering tonight. Bobby Brink stood out with a multi-point night, as did the team’s speed and possession overall. Unfortunately, Sidney Crosby got a Crosby Bounce in the third to tie the game and we got sent to OT because of a strong effort from Artus Silovs, and some typical Crosby nonsense.

But the Sens were able to turn momentum after the Flyers’ fast start and Olle Lycksell scoring against his former employer 3 minutes into the second was enough to give Ottawa a 2-1 lead through 40, despite Dan Vladar’s best efforts. The Flyers had a chance early and late in this game, but just couldn’t muster enough quality scoring chances to support another strong game from Vladar. Charlie & Bill break down the loss, discussing the Flyers goaltending, penchant for taking penalties, and all of Matvei Michkov’s scoring chances. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Let’s just accept the framing that during Claude Giroux’s tenure as captain of the Philadelphia Flyers there was a leadership problem. The team clearly had bigger issues (lack of talent, first time coaches, bad drafts and contracts) but for the sake of argument, let’s accept it. How can the current Flyers learn from the mistakes of those teams and avoid the same “problems” in the locker room? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It has been a highly debated topic since 2022, whether Danny Briere has passed on higher-upside players in the NHL Entry Draft for safer picks, or positions of need. The headliner, of course, is Jett Luchanko instead of Zeev Buium.

Matvei Michkov became the first Flyers rookie with consecutive 2-goal games since Dave Poulin in March of 1984, leading Philadelphia to a victory that many fans were rooting against. Neck-and-neck with the Buffalo Sabres in the draft lottery standings, a regulation loss would’ve gone a long way to locking in a top-5 pick for the Orange & Black.

Well, the first period was pretty good! Unfortunately for the Philadelphia Flyers, there were 40 minutes of hockey played after that, and Seattle was the far better team for the vast majority of that time. Owen Tippett opened the scoring on a rush after some nice neutral zone work by Sean Couturier & Matvei Michkov, and that was pretty much it. Philly’s power play was once again terrible and Sam Ersson wasn’t great, and that all resulted in a third consecutive loss at home.

Well, if the Philadelphia Flyers wanted to make one final plea to Danny Briere that he should consider keeping the group together for the final 19 games in an attempt to get back into the Stanley Cup Playoff race, they failed miserably against the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday night. Jets backup Eric Comrie held the Orange & Black off the scoreboard, and while Philly may have been emotional for what may have been Scott Laughton’s final game with the organization that drafted him in 2012, they did not channel that emotion into an A+ effort against the West’s best team.

Travis Konecny is having one of the most productive seasons for a Philadelphia Flyer in years, despite a recent goal drought. TK is 10 points behind his career high with 31 games left, and has already matched the most assists he’s ever recorded. Can Travis Konecny keep it up? Can he be the first 90 point player in Orange & Black since Claude Giroux put up 102 points in 2017-18? How will the 4 Nations Face-Off impact TK’s season?

For a second straight night, the Flyers scored the game’s opening goal, but went to the first intermission trailing 2-1, and again, the New York team never looked back. Back-to-back regulation losses to division foes now have the Flyers falling further from Stanley Cup Playoff contention. The biggest news in the NHL, however, is a huge trade between the Carolina Hurricanes, Colorado Avalanche and Chicago Blackhawks which will send Mikko Rantanen to the Canes for Martin Necas and Jack Drury. Taylor Hall is also headed to Carolina from the ‘Hawks. Bill & Kelly react to Flyers/Islanders, as well as Carolina GM Eric Tulsky making one of the biggest trades the NHL has seen in a while.

The Philadelphia Flyers played their worst period in weeks to start this game in Madison Square Garden, and when you couple a mediocre-at-best performance with a red hot Igor Shesterkin, the New York Rangers won handily in a game with significant implications in the wild card race.

Matvei Michkov has fallen out of favor over the last few weeks, falling behind Macklin Celebrini, Lane Hutson and even Dustin Wolf in the Calder Trophy race. But a recent hot streak has re-opened the possibility for The Mad Russian to get back into the conversation.

The first period of Thursday’s matchup with the Islanders was marred by a questionable hit that knocked Ryan Poehling out of the game, and the emotions after that put the Flyers at a 1-0 deficit after 20 minutes.

It’s the final week of August, and the entire hockey world is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. While there are still some loose ends that need tying, like the Ryan Johansen situation, Charlie & Bill are looking ahead to what will be a pivotal year in Danny Briere’s tenure as GM, and a pivotal year for the fanbase as more people will be paying attention to the team than have been in years. What is the gang expecting? What are they most looking forward to? Plus, a look at some items from the latest 32 Thoughts, and an announcement for the Rookie Series ticket giveaway!

Happy Friday PHLY fam! On today’s edition of F-Around Friday, Charlie & Bill discuss another old trope that has followed the Philadelphia Flyers around for years- that they acquire great players way too late. Sometimes it’s a disaster, and sometimes those players are good contributors. But damn, it would’ve been nice to have them in their primes. Jaromir Jagr, Paul Coffey, Jeremy Roenick, Derian Hatcher, and Peter Forsberg are just a few of the guys we’re remembering today. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The beauty of a daily show is what we don’t get to one day, we always have tomorrow! Ryan Johansen, Kurt Overhardt, the NHL CBA and all that fun stuff took over “What if?” Wednesday, so we’re tackling some hypotheticals today! What if Nolan Patrick was 4 days younger, making him draft eligible in 2016? What if the Flyers go after Peyton Krebs or one of the 20-or-so unsigned RFAs? Charlie & Bill get into these and more, plus a look at the NHL’s top-20 centers. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

While it is “What if?” Wednesday, the Philadelphia Flyers have a very real situation on their hands, as they move to terminate Ryan Johansen’s contract. On today’s show, Charlie & Bill dive deeper into the Johansen situation, looking at past NHL contract terminations, the possible timeline for resolution, and how this could impact both the Flyers and Johansen. Plus, the Kurt Overhardt of it all! And if there’s time, we do have a few interesting hypotheticals to fulfill the “what if?” Element of our offseason programming.

In light of the recent report that Alexei Kolosov would like to stay in Russia for 2024-25, and that Nashville Predators goalie prospect Yaroslav Askarov has requested a trade, Flyers fans are abuzz with the possibility that Danny Briere may target Askarov in a trade. Charlie & Bill discuss the Kolosov situation, what Philadelphia’s options are, and if it makes sense to add Askarov to the goaltending mix. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

After trading Cutter Gauthier to the Anaheim Ducks shortly after he was named the Best Forward at the World Junior tournament, Philadelphia Flyers fans clamored for the player Briere received in return: Jamie Drysdale. Drysdale impressed early, showing off his high-end skating and puck moving that made him the 6th overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. But an injury and lack of production hampered his introduction to Philly and now fans are split on Drysdale’s upside, and if he was the right player to get back for Gauthier. Charlie, Bill & Kelly discuss Drysdale’s season, and what to expect from the 22-year-old defender going forward. Learn more about your ad choices.

Signed to an 8-year contract extension in January, Owen Tippett enters 2024-25 set to count for more money against the salary cap than he’d made previously in his career, combined. Coming off of back-to-back seasons posting 27 and 28 goals, respectively, Tippett is expected to become a 30-40-goal scorer for the Philadelphia Flyers, living up to the expectations of the only piece of the Claude Giroux trade to contribute in the NHL, so far. With Charlie’s season review as the source material ( https://allphly.com/owen-tippett-review-flyers-shooter-myths/ ), the guys break down Owen Tippett, his expectations going forward, and where he fits in the lineup now that Matvei Michkov has arrived.

Scott Laughton has long been discussed as a valuable, versatile part of the Philadelphia Flyers lineup, and a culture-setting leader in the locker room. Laughton has also been part of myriad trade talks over the last several seasons. Coming off a down year, the 30-year-old forward still seems to be a vital part of Philadelphia’s team both on and off the ice. But as Charlie wrote in his Laughton season review (https://allphly.com/scott-laughton-review-trade-season-rebuild/), there are options concerning Laughton’s future. Charlie & Bill discuss what’s next for Laughton after a dozen years in the Flyers organization, as well as several other headlines around the league including Patrick Laine rumors and possible PTO targets.

Despite a lack of championships, there are plenty of compelling Flyers games starring Claude Giroux, Mike Richards, Eric Lindros and more over the last 44 years. Where will the 2010 winner-take-all shootout against the Rangers place? Is the comeback against Boston bigger than Game 6 in 1987? Is there enough representation of the 80s?

Let’s talk goaltenders! We’ve talked a lot about the high-end talent the Philadelphia Flyers need to acquire and develop in order to one day compete for a Stanley Cup, and that conversation mostly revolves around top-line forwards, and top-pair defensemen. But goalies are pretty damn important. Sam Ersson showed signs of viability as a starter last season, but the heavy workload when he became the only NHL-caliber netminder on the roster torpedoed his numbers. Ivan Fedotov is finally here, but he’s a huge question mark as a 28-year-old rookie. Alexei Kolosov is allegedly coming over. Last year’s draft picks have a ton of potential but need time.

Do they have faith that kicking the can to next summer will pay off? Or is it a delay tactic to just buy more time? And what do we make of all the rumors?

Egor Zamula, the Philadelphia Flyers last remaining restricted free agent, has inked a two-year deal. Development camp is over, complete with a Jett Luchanko ELC signed. The draft wasn’t as exciting as we hoped, free agency was a predictable nothing-burger, and now into the second week of the new league year, Danny Briere has not done much to differentiate this year’s Flyers team from last season’s, with the obvious exception of Matvei Michkov’s pending arrival.

When the PHLY Flyers wishlists were published last week, we got a few comments about John Tortorella’s “open contempt” for Trevor Zegras, stemming from his comments about the Zegras/Sonny Milano “Michigan” goal from December 2021. But were those comments really that inflammatory? Would they hurt the chances of Danny Briere acquiring Zegras from Anaheim? Plus, the news of the day is that the San Jose Sharks may be interested in Cam Atkinson, but Atkinson may not be interested in San Jose.

Two years ago today (June 17, 2022), John Tortorella was named head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers.

Today, Charlie and Bill discuss the first 2 years of Torts, and how much longer they foresee him lasting as the head coach, and what could come after that.

We’ve got a bunch of different topics today. First, we’re using Rhys Hoskins’ return to Citizens Bank Park with the Milwaukee Brewers as a jumping off point to discuss moments we miss about the Flyers being a great team, and returns of beloved players like Kimmo Timonen and Claude Giroux. And as long as we’re talking about former Flyers, Charlie & Bill tackle the question “was the Bobrovsky trade the worst in Philadelphia history?” with Bob now back in the Stanley Cup Final. Plus, we’ll discuss the 2010 Stanley Cup Final, because on this day 14 years ago the Flyers won Game 4 to tie the series at 2, and it’s the last time they won a game in the Championship round.

We’re on the verge of an important Flyers offseason, Danny Briere’s second as GM. While trades can be made now, we’re about a month away from the true beginning of the busy season, with the draft at the end of June and free agency beginning July 1. And the biggest piece of business the Flyers will handle on July 1 is Travis Konecny, who will officially be eligible for a contract extension at the onset of the new league year. Should the Flyers immediately re-sign TK? Should they wait? Is it a good idea to keep him at all, or should they trade him while his value is high? Charlie & Bill debate the TK conundrum as well as talk some draft, playoffs and more! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Let’s get into the 2024 NHL Entry Draft! On today’s show, Charlie and Bill are beginning the draft process. The Philadelphia Flyers will draft 12th in the first round, as well as have one of the final four picks in the first round as well, as a result of the Florida Panthers reaching the conference final. Philly may have a pair of second round picks as well, a compensatory pick (#51) as a result of not signing Jay O’Brien, and potentially #36 from Columbus, but the Blue Jackets have until the end of the first round to let the Flyers know if they’re surrendering this year’s or next year’s second rounder. With a possible 4 picks in the top 51, Philadelphia has a chance to fill a ton of roster holes, and there isn’t a bigger hole than at center.
