Matvei Michkov returned to John Tortorella’s lineup on Monday night and scored a goal, picked up a primary assist and also potted one in the shootout.

Matvei Michkov makes his return to the lineup with a huge game against Macklin Celebrini and the Sharks, scoring a goal and picking up an assist, plus scoring in the shootout, to seal a 4-3 Flyers win.

Bill, JP & Charlie break down the win, and the lineup decisions John Tortorella has facing him...

After kicking their southeastern road trip off with a loss to the red hot Hurricanes, the Flyers find themselves at the very bottom of the NHL’s standings by total points and points-percentage. While it is only November 6th, dead last is not where most fans expected to see John Tortorella’s squad. Charlie & Bill discuss what’s up with the 4-8-1 Flyguys, and if this may have been Danny Briere’s pla...

The Flyers went into Carolina to take on a hot Hurricanes team and battled with one of the best in the East, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the Canes’ attack which overwhelmed Philly all night. Bill, Kelly & Charlie break down the loss and what’s next on the Flyers southeastern roadtrip. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We’re back with a new week of Flyers coverage, and with a road trip down the southeastern coast coming up, Bill & Kelly talk about a few big picture questions facing the Orange & Black- how is Matvei Michkov’s Rookie of the Year race going, and how are the 2025 draft picks shaping up? We also will get into the Sam Ersson injury, and how John Tortorella & Co. should handle the goaltending situation...

A shut-out victory for Sam Ersson! Tyson Foerster's 2nd-period goal and Joel Farabee's empty-netter sealed the deal for the Orange and Black, as they escape from Boston with a 2-0 victory, their first regulation win in Boston since 2011.

The goaltending has been bad. The offense has been inconsistent, at best. The defense has been banged up. The Philadelphia Flyers seem to be struggling in all phases of the game to start the 2024-25 season, posting the league’s 2nd worst points-percentage and 2nd worst goal-differential in the NHL. Charlie & Bill break down what has gone right for the Orange & Black (Matvei Michkov!) and everythin...

On Sunday, the Philadelphia Flyers were right back to looking like the listless team they’ve been for a majority of the season, after what was a promising performance on Saturday. Aleksei Kolosov was up and down in his debut, but it was a completely non-existent forecheck or any offensive push that doomed Philly against the Montreal Canadiens. Bill, Steve and Charlie break down the game, and what...

Sean Couturier picked up his 500th point and first goal since last February in style, and went on to score 3 and combine with linemates Matvei Michkov and Travis Konecny for 12 points in a 7-5 Flyers win, their first at home and first in regulation of the season. Bill, JP & Charlie break down the action and look ahead to tomorrow’s game as well. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.ad...

TGIF! The Flyers are looking to bounce back this weekend with back-to-back home games on Saturday and Sunday. Bill and Charlie are off today, but we still have you covered! A BRAND NEW mailbag edition of PHLY Flyers.  Is Sean Couturier's treatment the reason the Flyers are struggling? Is John Tortorella's line juggling messing with chemistry? Who is a legitimate coaching option post-Torts? And mor...

The Flyers were close to pulling off an epic early season comeback, turning a 4-0 blowout into a 4-3 game, but some late decisions by the Orange and black killed them after a stellar effort in the second half of the game.  Charlie, Kelly & Bill breakdown the night, including Matvei Michkov’s big night, Ivan Fedotov’s rollercoaster and wtf is Egor Zamula up to? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz comp...

A season that began with a buzz thanks to the addition of Matvei Michkov and the anticipation of young players like Tyson Foerster, Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale stepping up has not gone according to plan thus far.  Philadelphia’s 5v5 offense continues to struggle, and now the power play is hurting after allowing a pair of short-handed goals to the Washington Capitals in defeat on Tuesday night. ...

The Philadelphia Flyers are off to a 1-3-1 start, and fans have questions about a season that had a bit more buzz than years passed. Ivan Fedotov has stunk, Sean Couturier is on the left wing of the 4th line, Jett Luchanko hasn’t scored a point and John Tortorella is getting some flak for this team’s rough start. Bill & Kelly discuss what has gone on over the first 5 games of the season and field...

The Flyers are finally back in Philadelphia and maybe they left their jam out west, because Saturday’s home opener was a failure. Sam Ersson did what he could but the defensive zone coverage and offensive zone creation looked a lot like the team that lost 12 of 17 to end the 2023-24 season. Bill & JP break down the loss, and what’s next for the 1-3-1 Flyers. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz compan...

Well, at least it didn’t go to overtime. The Flyers certainly seemed eager to get back to Philadelphia, and not all that interested in challenging the Seattle Kraken to a competitive hockey game after the first 20 minutes. Scott Laughton scored a pair in the first, and the Flyers lead 2-1. Then Fedotov imploded and Philly’s defense wasn’t much better as Seattle scored 4 unanswered in the middle fr...
