Episodes
Philadelphia Flyers fans have long surmised Mike Sullivan could be the top candidate to replace John Tortorella once Torts’ presumed role changed from head coach to the front office.
With that obviously not happening, the question is will Tortorella’s protege still be a candidate, assuming he and the Penguins part ways.
Bill & Charlie discuss Sullivan, as well as Andrew Brunette’s potential candidacies.
Plus, Sean Couturier’s comments...
The Philadelphia Flyers have made a habit out of winning meaningless games to hurt their draft lottery chances, but with their Stanley Cup Playoff hopes on line, Columbus Blue Jackets netminder Jet Greaves came into the Wells Fargo Center and shutdown Philly in the second-to-last game of both teams’ season.
Charlie, Kelly & Bill break down the loss, and discuss the Draft Lottery implications of the game, as well as the Orange & Blac...
With only two games remaining in the Philadelphia Flyers season, we’re taking a look at some head coaching candidates, including another look at Pat Ferschweiler after his Western Michigan Broncos won the NCAA National Title over the weekend.
Could connections to Flyers President Keith Jones, and prospect Alex Bump, put the WMU coach over the top?
Plus, Charlie & Bill talk Tyson Foerster’s hot streak, the goalie situation, the draft ...
It took more than 60 minutes, But Claude Giroux’s Ottawa Senators defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 4-3 in overtime, marking Philly’s 22nd post-regulation game of the season.
Bill & Steve break down the loss, and discuss the future of the Orange & Black’s goaltending, coaching, and more!
The Flyers and Islanders, as they always seem to do, needed not only overtime, but a shootout to determine a winner in this matinee matchup in South Philly. Ultimately it was Tyson Foerster and Sam Ersson who prevailed, eliminating the Isles from Stanley Cup Playoff contention.
Bill & Kelly break down the win, and the Orange & Black’s late season surge since John Tortorella was relieved of his duties.
How about a MAILBAG DAY?
With only four games left and the Philadelphia Flyers eliminated from Stanley Cup Playoff contention, fans are invested in the NHL Draft Lottery odds, and hoping for an active offseason.
Bill & Kelly answer questions about replacing Ivan Fedotov and upgrading the goalie position, how the GM will attack this offseason and spend his draft picks, as well as Cutter Gauthier’s breakout, other rebuilding teams’ tim...
he New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers played a pretty boring first 40 minutes of hockey, and then exploded for 9 goals in the 3rd period to send the pro-tank Philly fans on a roller coaster of relief and annoyance.
Ultimately, it was the Orange & Black who prevailed, damaging their bid for the 4th best odds in the 2025 Draft Lottery.
Charlie & Bill break down the “win,” and discuss Aleksei Kolosov’s place in the organization.
We’re continuing to make our way through potential Philadelphia Flyers head coaching candidates, looking at a few “retread” options today in Jay Woodcroft, Luke Richardson, and Joel Quenneville.
Plus, Charlie, Kelly & Bill look back at their preseason predictions for Flyers leading scorer, MVP, and best d-man, and discuss why basically none of their predictions came true.
The Philadelphia Flyers came out sharp against the Montreal Canadiens, scoring in the first 5 minutes and carrying that 1-0 lead into the third period.
But it did not last, as the Habs were able to take control and outshoot the Orange & Black over the final 40 minutes 22-16 en route to a 3-2 win.
Ryan Poehling set a new career high with his 12th goal of the year and added an assist late, but it was Lane Hutson and the Canadiens who g...
The search for the next head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers continues on today’s show, with Charlie & Bill discussing a trio of current college bench bosses- David Carle, Pat Ferschweiler & Jay Pandolfo.
Plus, they look at their Flyers predictions from the preseason and how good (or bad) they guessed the season would go.
There is no shortage of potential candidates to coach the Philadelphia Flyers next season and through the “next chapter” of Danny Briere‘s rebuild.
Today, Charlie, Kelly & Bill begin discussing a few candidates, including current Cancouver Canucks bench boss Rick Tochet, and Phantoms head coach Ian Laperrière.
Plus a look at Cam York and his role on Philly‘s blue line, and newest Flyer Karsen Dorwart.
The Philadelphia Flyers have won 3 straight games following John Tortorella’s firing, matching their longest stretch of victories this season.
Given the draft lottery implications, and everything that has transpired this year, Charlie, Kelly & Bill debate whether these wins are wasting a “lost season.”
The gang also looks at Matvei Michkov’s Calder odds, as well as The Mad Russian’s rankings among rookies in the league and Flyers his...
Matvei Michkov registered another multi-point game with a pair of assists and the Philadelphia Flyers won their third straight game following John Tortorella’s dismissal last Thursday, as the Orange & Black continue battling to kill their draft lottery odds.
Charlie, Kelly & Bill break down the victory, and discuss the ramifications of strong games from Ivan Fedotov & The Mad Russian.
Matvei Michkov became the first Flyers rookie with consecutive 2-goal games since Dave Poulin in March of 1984, leading Philadelphia to a victory that many fans were rooting against.
Neck-and-neck with the Buffalo Sabres in the draft lottery standings, a regulation loss would’ve gone a long way to locking in a top-5 pick for the Orange & Black.
But the rejuvenated Flyguys had other ideas, scoring 6 goals for a second straight game si...
The Philadelphia Flyers surprised fans on Thursday morning, announcing John Tortorella had been relieved of his coaching duties, and associate coach Brad Shaw would be taking over on an interim basis.
After Thursday night’s 6-4 win over the Playoff-contending Montreal Canadiens, there are still a ton of questions regarding Torts’ dismissal.
Can Shaw hold the job? Will this spark a draft lottery-ruining run? What really lead to all of...
For at least one game, the Philadelphia Flyers looked like a team not in the midst of a full-on tank following John Tortorella being relieved of his head coaching duties earlier Thursday.
Matvei Michkov recorded his 16th multi-point game, picking up a goal and an assist in a 3-goal first period for the Orange & Black and added a second goal in the 3rd to get to 22 goals and 54 points on the season.
Charlie, Kelly & Bill react to the ...
In a shocking move just hours before their sports complex neighbors begin a new MLB season in Washington DC, the Philadelphia Flyers announce that they have relieved John Tortorella of head coaching duties and have named Brad Shaw as the interim coach. Bill & Charlie react to the shocking news in an emergency episode.
John Tortorella said on Tuesday night that he’s not interested in learning to coach a season like this. Unfortunately a season like this is what Torts has, and now questions are being asked, loudly, about how much longer he has behind Philly’s bench.
Charlie & Bill debate Tortorella’s future as Philadelphia Flyers coach, as well as what might go on in net for this season’s final 9 games, as well as next year.
Plus, a check-in with Le...
Scott Laughton did not have the big night against his old team that we predicted, but it wasn’t needed for the Toronto Maple Leafs who dominated the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night.
On the bright side, Matvei Michkov extended his point-streak to 3 games with an assist on Sean Couturier’s goal late in the 2nd period.
Charlie, Kelly & Bill break down the loss, and celebrate the games remaining hitting single digits.
Despite being eliminated from Stanley Cup Playoff contention, the Chicago Blackhawks came out motivated enough to score 7 goals against Ivan Fedotov and the Philadelphia Flyers.
Travis Konecny and Matvei Michkov had a couple points each, but it was former Flyers prospect Pat Maroon, who recently announced his retirement following this season, who got the last laugh in Chicago.
Bill & Kelly break down the loss and how it impacts the ...
