PHLY Philadelphia Flyers Podcast

Steve and Quigz celebrate the 300th official episode of Flyp by...talking a LOT about the Philadelphia Eagles. Look, folks, they're in the Super Bowl and we are stoked, so it needed to be discussed. The guys also talked about the state of the Philadelphia Flyers at the All-Star Break, the Bo Horvat trade, and did a good old-fashioned Bach Update.

In a special BSH episode, Steph and Charlie reminisce on the many eras of Broad Street Hockey -- remember Eric T, Jay Rosehill, and even Michael Del Zotta/Lisa Ann? -- before providing updates on the future of the podcast and the site as a whole. Then, it's time to switch over into talking about The Hockey Team The Flyers, which is in the midst of its bye week. Kevin Hayes' trip to Florida for the NHL All-Star game is discussed, and why it's actually a good thing that he was picked over Travis Konecny. Finally, it's time for another dive into the topic of the job security of one Chuck Fletcher, and why the Pride Night situation didn't help his case to remain in charge of hockey operations.

Since Ivan Provorov made sure to make this week in Flyers' hockey all about him, the gang devotes a significant portion of this week's show to Provorov's actions, the meaning behind them, the way it all affected the team, and what it means for fans of this hockey club. It's not the Ivan show though, and so the gang gets into the Flyers' recent run of good play and the horrifying reality that they could, theoretically, actually make the playoffs.

The Flyers have won 6 of 7 and 8 of 12, and neither Bill nor Steph nor Charlie can fully wrap their minds around it, let alone pin down any single feeling regarding this sudden turnaround in the Orange and Black's play and results. From potential Ivan Provorov and Travis Konecny trades, to assessing Sam Ersson and even discussing Bobby Brink's eventual call-up, the gang tries to nail down everything regarding a suddenly interesting hockey team on Broad Street. Everybody is so confused, the question is even asked "was Chuck Fletcher right?" Dear god, what is going on? Learn more about your ad choices.

Ahh, the lowly Buffalo Sabres. Who, it's safe to say, have lapped the Flyers. They have exciting, young, high-end talent. A goalie performing well nearly every night. A coach optimizing his players' strengths. Anyway, it's the Flyers' first meeting with the Sabres and while you may have hear a lot about Tage Thompson, there are a few more things you'll want to know heading into this game, and thankfully Joe Yerdon is here to tell us about them.

Highlighted by 5 goals in the second period, the Philadelphia Flyers won their fourth consecutive game on Thursday night, defeating the Arizona Coyotes in the Orange & Black's return to the Wells Fargo Center following the annual Disney On Ice trip out west. Travis Konecny and the freshly-minted All-Star Kevin Hayes each notched 1 goal and 2 assists, while Morgan Frost's 4 assists accounted for his second 4-point game against the 'Yotes in the last 25 days. While Frost's production jump has been bolstered by facing off against Arizona, he does have 5 points in the 9 games in between his Arizona outbursts, and is currently scoring at a half-point-per-game clip, and that includes the 24-game stretch in which Frost notched 1 goal and 2 assists over 24 games from October 19 through December 9. From here, the season is about finding out if Frost, along with Owen Tippett (6 goals, 5 assists last 14 games), Cam York (1 goal, 7 assists in 12 games since his call-up), Joel Farabee (3 goal, 3 assists in last 7 games), and the rest of the semi-youngsters (Noah Cates, Wade Allison) who might be a part of the future can continue to grow under John Tortorella, and scratch out a place in the organization beyond the next couple of try-out seasons. Well, that's it. Listen to the postgame. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the first show of the brand new year and the gang are looking at the Flyers' current run of relative success. A few players seem to be buying what John Tortorella is selling and making some big steps forward this season. Some, however, are not. So who is part of the solution? Is anyone?

The Arizona Coyotes are in Philadelphia for tonight's game at The Farg, the Flyers' first home game since before the holidays. Both of these teams are still bad but both of them are winning come big games here and there -- the Flyers out in California, the Yotes beating teams like Toronto and Boston -- and totally screwing up their lottery chances in the process. Who can say which team will overachieve tonight, but Carl Pavlock of Five For Howling is back to give us an update on the Coyotes progress this season. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Flyers are down in Carolina for their second meeting with the Carolina Hurricanes, a team that was good the first time we saw them and have, somehow, gotten even better.

The Flyers will take the ice against the Toronto Maple Leafs at 2pm on Thursday; an odd time, to be sure, but kind of a fun one too, no? The recently red-hot Leafs have cooled off of late, winning only one of their last three. Overall they're 5-3 in the month of December and easily one of the top teams in the league, so the Flyers will really have to bring it.

Last week the gang lamented that there wasn't much left to say about the Philadelphia Flyers this season. They just suck. This week, the team decided to remedy this problem altogether. From scratching Kevin Hayes to Chuck laughing at a press conference, the gang goes through all of this week's happenings before getting into the NHL's latest dumb idea.

The Flyers are back at home tonight to face the New York Rangers, who will be coming into The Farg riding a five game winning streak. The Rangers have had a lot of up and down since the Flyers last played them back on November first, but things have been firmly trending in the "up" direction over the last couple of weeks so this won't be an easy one for the Flyers.

The Flyers are putting a lot of effort toward building a community of charitable giving this year -- from animal welfare fundraisers to bringing hockey to underprivileged kids in the city to hanging out with the boys at the casino.

The Flyers continue to be bad. John Tortorella keeps trying to make them better. And he's doing it, for the most part. It's just that better is still bad.

After losing their first Western Conference road trip game to the Vegas Golden Knights in overtime, the Flyers will head to Arizona State University for their first meeting with the Coyotes.

The Flyers have made their way out to Vegas for the first time this season, coming off of a loss to the Washington Capitals. The Golden Knights are hanging out in first place out West and are having a heck of a season so far, so to say it's going to be tough for the Flyers is probably an understatement.

The Flyers have finally figured out how to win some hockey games, and with some of their injured players returning to the lineup the question needs to be asked: are the Flyers headed toward Maximum Sadness? The gang dives into that question as well as looking back on the Chuck Fletcher/John Tortorella press conference that took place last week, and then taking a deep-dive into the Flyers' defense.

The Colorado Avalanche, your reigning Stanley Cup Champions, are in town tonight, their first time at the Wells Fargo Center since the banner went up. The Avs are battling just as many injuries to key players as the Flyers, and while they're still leagues better than our boys, it may just give them a fighting chance.

It's been a couple of months since the Flyers opened up their season with a 5-3 win over the New Jersey Devils, and a lot has changed since then -- for both clubs. The Flyers went on to complete their third ten game losing streak in less than two years. The Devils went on a franchise-record 13-game winning streak. The trajectories were different, to say the least. John Fischer of All About The Jersey came back to revisit his pregame predictions from last time and to get into what is making the Devils click.

What is there to say? The Flyers have very few good players, the Lightning have a lot of them. When Tampa wanted to take over, they did, basically winning the game in the second period.

This podcast is up and down, like a toilet seat. This podcast was mocked by Jack Edwards for eating too many meals in a given day. This podcast spent a shocking amount of time trying to get an A.I. to generate an image of Meat Read. This podcast also spoke shockingly little time discussing a 10 game Philadelphia Flyers losing streak, because the handsome and wonderful hosts have become so desensitized to double digit losing streaks from the orange and black. This was recorded before the Flyers-Lightning game, but SHOCKINGLY, the Flyers lost that one, so big whoop. Follow us on Twitter: @Flyperbole @ryanquigz Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the second meeting of the Flyers and Lightning this season, and if you'll recall, the Flyers won the first one back in October. After finding their way out of their latest ten game losing streak, can the Flyers do it again? As in, win a second game? And a second game against the Lightning?? It's a tall ask, but they're gonna try. Justin Godfrey from Raw Charge is back again to let us know what's been going on with the Bolts over the last six weeks. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Flyers have finally won a game ahead of a tough stretch against some of the top teams in the NHL, so where do things go from here? The gang takes a look at Kevin Hayes' performance this season, the temperature of Chuck Fletcher's seat, and whether John Tortorella's schtick is already wearing thin.

The 10-game losing streak is over and I think we can all agree that the Philadelphia Flyers finally won a game for one reason: Zack MacEwen and Nicolas Deslauriers each got in a fight, with Matt Martin and Ross Johnston, respectively, within the game's first eight seconds. Such physical determination and sacrifice propelled the Flyers to their first win since November 8, a 5-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues. The Orange and Black wrapped up their November schedule with a win on Tuesday night to put a bow on a month in which they went 3-8-4 and saw their overall record fall to 8-10-5, good enough for second-to-last in the Metropolitan division, fourth-from-the-bottom in the Eastern Conference, and a .457 points-percentage, well within the league's bottom-10. It's been a great month for the pro-tank portion of the fanbase, but Carter Hart's performance (stopped 23/24 for a .958 save-percentage on Tuesday) against the Islanders was more akin to the early-season Hart, when he went 6-0-2 in his first eight starts, posting a .946 save-percentage over that span. Is Hart about to get hot again? Could this team start reverting back to mediocre rather than a cellar-dweller? Honestly, who the hell knows? Listen to the postgame! Learn more about your ad choices.

Another first game against a Metro team this week, as the Flyers head up to Long Island to say hello to our old friends the New York Islanders. The faces on this team are the same ones we've been seeing for years, but in the post-Trotz era this seems like a whole new team.

The Philadelphia Flyers lost to the Boston Bruins on Thursday night, 4-1, in a game that looked a lot more like what we expected from this team before the season began. The Flyers have now lost five straight (4 in regulation, 1 on overtime), and have come up without a victory in seven of nine game to start November, after a 5-2-1 start in October. Carter Hart has just been ok, rather than other-worldly, and that has been the biggest difference, but the offense has also dried up. After averaging 3 goals/game in the season's first month, they're down a full goal this month, averaging only two tallies per game, and scoring more than two only twice in the last nine games. Losing is ultimately good for the long-term good of this franchise, but that doesn't make watching these games any easier. Philly spent over six minutes on the power play against Boston, and mustered only one shot on goal in those opportunities (and hey, it went in!). Tough times and tough games to watch may be ahead for the orange and black but we must remember, this is for the best. Listen to the postgame. Learn more about your ad choices.

Before this season started you definitely had the Bruins as one of the best teams in the league, right? No. Of course you didn't.

Three games makes a streak and the Flyers now own a losing one, as they dropped a kinda weird game against the Dallas Stars at home at The Farg. Weird in the sense that the Flyers didn't really play bad. The Flyers just are bad. They tried really hard, gave the proverbial 110%, they even got a pretty good performance out of backup Felix Sandstrom. They just... aren't as good as the Dallas Stars. We're probably going to see a lot of this, folks, and we chatted about it after the game. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

In Johnny Gaudreau's first game against the Philadelphia Flyers since Chuck Fletcher committed organizational malpractice and refused to attempt to bring the star forward home, Johnny Hockey showed Philadelphia exactly what they're missing, scoring the game's opening goal and assisiting on two others in a game the Orange and Black lost 5-2 to the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Flyers weren't necessarily "bad," minus not having much jump early, they just appeared disjointed, and somewhat lacking in chemistry, and were unable to capitalize on several opportunities to extend the BJ's losing streak, which was halted at five games thanks in large part to Gaudreau. The loss was Carter Hart's first in regulation, and while he may not have been spectacular, all three goals he allowed (CBJ added a pair on empty-netters to pad what became a close game in the third period), were the results of turnovers leading to odd-man situations for Columbus. So, not the best showing for Philly in their first of what will be many encounters with Gaudreau over the next seven years, but they'll get right back at it on Saturday when they host Claude Giroux and the Ottawa Senators, in what will be the former captain's first game in Philadelphia since his 1,000th as a Flyer last season.
