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.Charlie & Bill break down the win, discussing the hopeful end of Michkov’s slump, Cam York’s solid start to the year, Rick Tocchet’s line-juggling, and more!

No matter the combination, the Flyers 4th line has NOT generated any offense this season so far. Should the Danny Briere and the Orange and Black call up a prospect from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms to try and spark some offense on the struggling line? Charlie and Bill of the PHLY Flyers Podcast discuss some possibilities, including Alex Bump, Karsen Dorwart, Tucker Robertson, and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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. Plus… Cutter Gauthier has scored his first career hat trick and that upsets us. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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.Bill & Charlie break down the win, Zegras’ big night, Philly’s power play, and a second straight shaky game for Vladar.

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.Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the loss and discuss what Rick Tocchet can do to jumpstart this team’s scoring.

Well, things were going so well, it was bound to come back around. The Maple Leafs came into Philadelphia while most of Toronto is watching Game 7 of the World Series and out-classed the Philadelphia Flyers.

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.Bill, Steve & Charlie discuss the game, Sam Ersson’s season, Trevor Zegras’ hot streak, and some really questionable officiating.

Danny Briere and the Philadelphia Flyers front office has made the decision to send Jett Luchanko, the 13th overall pick in the 2024 NHL Draft, back to the OHL to play for the Guelph Storm (and potentially Team Canada in the World Junior Championship), rather than remain a fixture on the 4th line in Philly.Charlie & Bill discuss the decision, as well as Jamie Drysdale & Trevor Zegras’ success through the first 8 games.

The Philadelphia Flyers came out on fire early in the first period, putting a ton of pressure on the Ottawa Senators in the opening minutes, including Tyson Foerster beating Linus Ullmark 29 seconds after puck drop to put the Flyguys up 1-0. 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.

New goaltender Dan Vladar has staked an early claim to the #1 job in Philly, and Owen Tippett is off to a hot start with 5 goals.

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!
