PHLY Philadelphia Flyers Podcast

Sean Couturier celebrated the birth of his newborn son with a goal in the 2nd period, but the Flyers just did not have enough to overcome Sidney Crosby’s 3 assist first period and a lackluster performance from Sam Ersson. Charlie, Kelly & Bill breakdown the loss, and how Sam Ersson’s recent play could open the door for Aleksei Kolosov and maybe even Ivan Fedotov. Plus, FESTIVUS! Hosted by Simpleca...

After finding themselves in a 2-0 hole early in the 2nd period, the Flyers tied the game 3 times in the 3rd period, and escaped with a miraculous 5-4 overtime win over Columbus Blue Jackets courtesy of Owen Tippett. Charlie, Tyler, and Steve discuss tonight’s win and what’s next for the Orange and Black with their lengthy upcoming road trip. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswiz...

Coming off a 7-3 loss to the LA kings, Danny Briere made one move before the clock struck midnight and rosters froze for the Christmas holiday, sending Emil Andrae back to the AHL Lehigh Valley Phantoms. While the Flyers passed on making a trade before the freeze, there’s plenty going on on Broad Street between Cam York getting scratched, Matvei Michkov’s slump and much more. Charlie, Kelly & Bill...

The Flyers and Kings gave us a crazy first 40 minutes, with the score tied 3-3 and and Philadelphia with a 24-19 shot advantage. But Los Angeles took over in the 3rd, scoring in the first two minutes and adding three more to ice the game. Bill, Charlie & Steve break down the loss and what it will take for the Orange & Black to get back on track. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.ad...

Down 4-2 at the end of the 2nd period, the Flyers chances of winning seemed slim after two periods of sloppy play. Yet, in a classic twist, the Flyers clawed their way back to tie the game 4-4 5 mins into the 3rd but unfortunately lost their way in a 6-4 defeat. Bill, Charlie, and the birthday girl Kelly react to the loss and preview tomorrow's game as well. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz compan...

With back-to-back games on Wednesday and Thursday, and the Holiday Roster Freeze going into effect in between, there have been rumors circulating that Philadelphia has been involved in trade talks with several teams, including the Los Angeles Kings.

After being named the Philadelphia Flyers #2 goaltender ahead of Ivan Fedotov, Aleksei Kolosov turned in one of his best performances, stopping 25 of 26 Red Wings shots on Thursday night. But is Kolosov done climbing the Orange and Black’s depth chart? Could Kolosov challenge starter Sam Ersson for playing time? Charlie, Kelly & Bill discuss the competition between the pipes, as well as Emil Andra...

Scott Laughton continued his dominance over the Detroit Red Wings, scoring 4 GOALS to give him 13 in his last 13 games against the Wings and over 100 overall goals for his career. Aleksei Kolosov, on the day John Tortorella told the media his young Russian rookie netminder was officially #2 on Philly’s depth chart, was great as well, coming within 4 minutes of his first career shutout. Charlie, Bi...

On Wednesday, Charlie published an article putting an imaginary optimistic Flyers fan against an imaginary pessimist. On today’s show, Charlie, Kelly and Bill have the debate for real. Should the excitement over Matvei Michkov’s point-per-game pace outweigh the lack of centers to match his skill? Travis Sanheim and Travis Konecny are having all-star caliber seasons, but is that enough to justify l...

Matvei Michkov registered a pair of assists to make him a point-per-game player through the first 27 games of his career, and Travis Konecny notched a pair of goals en route to a big win for the Flyers in Columbus on Tuesday night. Charlie & Bill discuss the win, as well as strong performances for Jamie Drysdale, Morgan Frost, Tyson Foerster and more! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See...

With both the Philadelphia Flyers and Utah HC on the backend of back-to-backs, it was the artists formerly known as the Arizona Coyotes that came out on top, as they were just sharper pretty much all night. With both Sam Ersson and Jamie Drysdale making their returns, the Flyers could have benefitted from the addition of fresh legs, but unfortunately it was t enough, as they just spent too much ti...

Matvei Michkov gave the Flyers a 2-0 lead in the first period, but Boston fought back with a couple of 3rd period goals to send the game to overtime where, despite a Joel Farabee breakaway, the Bruins won it in the 3v3. Charlie & Bill break down the loss, and discuss the undisciplined play that has undone the Orange and black in consecutive losses. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm...

Check out the first 26 games of the Philadelphia Flyers schedule. Open the box score and see how the final 10, 20, 30 minutes unfolded. Philly has accomplished its stated goal of competitive hockey, with at least 20 games so far unfolding in dramatic fashion. But is that sustainable? We saw the team fall off a cliff late last season. Will the pressure turn them into diamonds or crack them? Charlie...

The Flyers fought back from a 3-0 deficit to take a 5-4 lead, but there’s a reason the Florida Panthers have ruled the Eastern Conference for over 2 years. The Cats fought back and ended up toppling Philly 7-5, in a wild game at the Wells Fargo Center. Charlie, Bill & JP break down the loss and what’s next for the Flyers.

It’s our first show of December and the Philadelphia Flyers are currently holding the 2nd Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference!

MICHKOVMANIA! Matvei Michkov, for the 3rd time as a teenager, scored the overtime winner for the Flyers to cap off a game that went from boring to dramatic very quickly. Michkov set up Owen Tippett to open the scoring and that’s all we saw until a busy 3rd period, as the standouts in the game were goaltenders Jordan Binnington and Aleksei Kolosov. That is, until OT. Charlie & Bill break down the w...

The Philadelphia Flyers scored a couple of goals on Igor Shesterkin before 4:30 had elapsed in the first period, and they didn’t score again until the Rangers star netminder was on the bench with 28 seconds left, but it was enough to earn the victory! Bill, Kelly & Charlie break down the win and appreciate Travis Konecny. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for informatio...

I can’t believe what I just saw. The Flyers win in overtime after doing pretty much nothing all game. Morgan Frost tied the game with 11 seconds left and Sean Couturier won it in overtime, tapping a puck from Travis Konecny by Juuse Saros for the win. Charlie & Bill discuss the game, and the news and trade rumors swirling about. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for inf...

Morgan Frost and Sean Couturier gave the Flyers a 2-0 lead in the first period and Emil Andrae netted the first goal of his career before the 30-second mark of the 2nd to put Philadelphia up 3-0 on the Pacific-leading Golden Knights. But Vegas made the game 3-2 before Matvei Michkov restored the 2 goal lead, but before the 2nd expired Vegas was once again within a goal, trailing 4-3. Vegas tied it...

Matvei Michkov certainly has a flare for the dramatic, scoring the OT winner against Connor Bedard’s Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday afternoon in South Philly.

Twenty games into the 2024-25 season, the Philadelphia Flyers are 8-10-2 (.450). Matvei Michkov is leading all rookies in goals and points. Travis Konecny is continuing his scoring pace of the previous 2 seasons. Travis Sanheim looks more and more like a top-pair defenseman. Ivan Fedotov has had his ups and downs. Beyond that, it feels like we need a lot more time to figure out exactly what to mak...

The Philadelphia Flyers played a fairly solid first 40 minutes against a very good Carolina Hurricanes team, but failure to pull the trigger on some chances came back to bite Philly in the 3rd, as the Canes surged for 3 goals in the first 7 minutes of the final frame to put the game on ice. Charlie, Bill & Steve break down the loss, and how John Tortorella can use this game to reset his lineup and...

Philadelphia Flyers fans and analysts came into the season with high expectations for a lot of individuals. Most of those individuals were wingers- Matvei Michkov, Tyson Foerster, Joel Farabee, Owen Tippet, and Bobby Brink. Those wingers have had varying degrees of success, but one constant in Philly’s lineup is the inability of any center to generate any offense. Charlie, Kelly & Bill discuss the...

The Flyers showed real fight in the final minutes of this game, but ultimately fell to the Colorado Avalanche 3-2, on the strength of 2 goals by Cale Makar. Charlie, Kelly & Bill break down the loss, as a few of the positives, like Helge Grans’ debut and first NHL point. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
