Matvei Michkov’s rookie season was electric, at least the first third and final third of it. Facing big expectations coming off the best first pro season for a Philadelphia Flyer since Simon Gagne, Michkov hasn’t delivered a sequel as good as the first, let alone better.

Today we’re taking a look at some scenarios for how the final 26 games of the Philadelphia Flyers’ season could go. First, we take a look at the standings, to figure out what sort of pace Philly will need to play to get back into the mix.Then we’re going to talk about whether Sean Couturier can end his 29-game scoring drought, and what happens if he doesn’t, as well as Sam Ersson, and if a strong end to this season could keep him in Orange & Black another season. Plus, is there anything Rick Tocchet can do to make you think he’s actually improved the team? What if the power play is good down the stretch? And do we want Porter Martone to go all the way to the Frozen Four, even if it means he’ll only play a game or two in the NHL? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers have too many wingers, and more are coming. In the top-9 there are six possible spots on the wing for Matvei Michkov, Travis Konecny, Owen Tippett, Tyson Foerster, Bobby Brink, Denver Barkey, Porter Martone, and Alex Bump. And what if Trevor Zegras is just better suited to play left wing? What if Danny Briere acquires another center who isn’t necessarily a first or second liner, and Noah Cates gets bumped to the flank? Not to mention all the prospect wingers taken in the top-half of the draft over the last few years. The Flyers are strong and overly deep at one position, and it’s the wing.Today, Charlie & Bill look at the Flyers glut of wingers, and talk about scenarios in which the group could be thinned out. Plus, more Olympic talk with both Canada (sans Travis Sanheim) & the US in action today. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Philadelphia Flyers, who’ve won three games in 2026 and only one at home, badly needed a strong performance against Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals in the penultimate game before the Olympic break. Philly got off to a strong enough start, taking a 2-0 lead before surrendering a short-handed goal in the second and an early game-tying goal in the third.But it was Jamie Drysdale and the Flyers power play that won the game, along with Dan Vladar’s excellent third period, to give the Flyers their first victory against an Eastern Conference opponent since December 16th.Bill, Charlie & Kelly break down the game, as well as Danny Briere’s comments about Rick Tocchet and Matvei Michkov.

I understand that Stef always wants to be part of the show and good for her, but maybe scale it back a little bit. I listen to every episode and this isn't the first time she annoyed me but this one made me comment. Stef, stay on the show if you want but take more of a sidekick role, it will be better for the show.
great job hosting, kelly!
