The Philadelphia Flyers led the Calgary Flames 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2 throughout Sunday night’s game, but a third period short-handed goal by Joel Farabee sent the game to overtime where Philly had chances but ultimately couldn’t beat Devin Cooley in several chances, while Matt Coronato scored on a 3-on-1 transition to seal the come-from-behind victory.

Charlie & Bill break down the loss, discussing Owen Tippett looking like himself, Denver Barkey driving an effective scoring 4th line, and this team’s inability to hold a lead.

David Jiricek hasn’t played for the Philadelphia Flyers since October 19 vs. the Colorado Avalanche. He’s been a healthy scratch for 6 straight games (as of this recording) and Simon Benoit has taken over the 6th d-man role. 

Charlie & Bill answer a mailbag question about the potential risk/reward of waiving David Jiricek to get him playing time in the AHL, with the added benefit of recalling Hunter McDonald, who could take Benoit’s place on the 3rd pair.

The Philadelphia Flyers must have felt good through 40 minutes, holding a 2-1 lead over a New York Rangers team that hadn’t registered a come-from-behind win yet this season. Unfortunately, that trend came to an end thanks to a pair of 3rd period goals, both assisted by Adam Fox, and Philly dropped the first of their five-game road trip.

Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the Flyers’ 10th regulation loss through 18 games, discussing another slow start to a game, Matvei Michkov’s usage, more missed shots, and more!

The Philadelphia Flyers are 4-9-4, dead last in the Eastern Conference and heading on a 5-game road trip. After last night’s loss to Minnesota that saw Philly fall behind 3-0 before the 21-minute mark, Travis Konecny said “it’s unacceptable.” But how often do we hear that word? And still, everyone seems fairly comfortable.

Today, Charlie & Bill debate the meaning of “unacceptable,” and open up the mailbag to PHLY DIEHARDS to submit questions ranging from Matvei Michkov’s ceiling, to personal anecdotes of yelling at officials following Trevor Zegras’ 10-minute misconduct on Tuesday.

The Philadelphia Flyers fell behind by 2 after a couple terrible shifts early in the second and trailed by 3 less than 21 minutes into the game. But goals by Tyson Foerster and Denver Barkey (his first!) had the Orange & Black poised to erase another three-goal deficit, but it was not to be.

Bill, Charlie & Ryan break down the loss, discussing the Flyers’ missed opportunities, suddenly dangerous power play, and how deep a hole Philly has dug itself, despite improved play recently.

We’ve got some catching up to do with the Philadelphia Flyers! After last night’s 6-3 win over the Utah Mammoth, they still find themselves as the only team with a sub-.400 points-percentage in the Eastern Conference, and tied for the most games played, meaning they have a lot of ground to gain, and less time than any other team to do it.

Today, Charlie & Bill talk about the returns of Travis Konecny and Owen Tippett, necessitating other young players being sent back to the AHL, as well as re-visiting last week’s conversation regarding Nick Seeler, Rick Tocchet and Matvei Michkov. Plus, a look at the newly released Hometown Remix jerseys, and Nikita Kucherov’s trade request out of Tampa Bay.

The Philadelphia Flyers played one of their best games of the year on Sunday, defeating the high-scoring Utah Mammoth thanks to solid defense and a persistent forecheck. Matvei Michkov got the offense going with his 10th goal of the year, and Travis Konecny had a couple of points in his first game since October 8th.

Bill, Petey & Charlie break down the win, discussing how the returns of TK and Owen Tippett could spark a November turnaround for the Orange & Black.

The Philadelphia Flyers lost their third straight game on Wednesday night, dropping them to 3-8-4 (3-12) for the season. Philly scored 2 goals against Washington, marking the 10th time they’ve scored 2 or fewer in a game through the first 15 contests. The Orange & Black are not playing particularly entertaining hockey. On top of that, team captain Sean Couturier called them “soft” after the loss to the Capitals, the most insulting criticism that can be used to describe an NHL team.

Matvei Michkov scored on the power play to draw the Philadelphia Flyers within 1 midway through the third period, but Jordan Kyrou and Alex Tuch each scored their second goals of the game to seal a 5-2 Caps victory on Wednesday night.

The Philadelphia Flyers were as bad through 30 minutes as pretty much any game during their 9-game losing streak. But then a switch flipped when Noah Cates scored his first of the year midway through the second period, sparking a comeback that saw the Flyers tie the game with under 10 seconds remaining in regulation. Unfortunately, Dan Vladar could only stop one of two 2-on-0s he faced in the 3v3, and the Flyers comeback resulted in only one point instead of two.

Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the loss discussing, Vladar, Zegras, Foerster, the momentum swings of the game, and how it’s possible to look so bad and so good at the same time.

The Philadelphia Flyers seemed to be headed in the right direction after their horrendous 0-6-3 start, winning three straight games in regulation and taking a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes on Saturday against the Anaheim Ducks. Unfortunately the Ducks scored five goals in the final 40 minutes to end the Flyers winning streak and raise the question, “well, what now?”

How should Danny Briere proceed in a season that has already seen a number of injuries, call-ups from the AHL, hints of a true BREAKOUT season for Matvei Michkov, and a lot of questions regarding a number of veterans in Rick Tocchet’s lineup.

Charlie & Bill take a look at the totality of the first 13 games, where the Flyers’ roster stands, and what they want to see moving forward.

The Philadelphia Flyers took advantage of two-man advantage with goals by Matvei Michkov and Porter Martone to go up 2-0 through 20 minutes, but it was Leo Carlsson who got the Anaheim Ducks on the board with an early 2nd period goal, and his power play assist of a Beckett Sennecke third period goal was the game-winner, earning the Ducks their first win in Philly of the Cutter Gauthier era.

Bill, Kelly, Charlie and special guest Jim Jackson break down the loss, and exactly how the Flyers blew leads of 2-0 and 3-2 in such an emotionally charged game.

Could GM Danny Briere & the Philadelphia Flyers trade for Seattle Kraken center Matty Beniers?

With the Flyers facing a growing logjam at winger, could Philadelphia target Beniers to strengthen its center depth and reshape the roster? Bill Matz and Charlie O'Connor break down the potential trade fit, Seattle’s situation, possible trade scenarios, and what a move for the former second-overall pick could mean for the Flyers’ future. Is Beniers a realistic target for Philly?

The Philadelphia Flyers have begun turning their season around, winning three straight to bring their record through 12 games to 3-6-3. While the Orange & Black still have a long way to go to meet preseason expectations, they can do a lot to dig out of the hole by extending their winning streak to four games on Saturday with a win over Cutter Gauthier’s Anaheim Ducks.

With Leo Carlsson’s offer sheet adding fuel to the emotional fire burning between Anaheim and Philly, Bill proposes a clean slate between the fans and team for this season if the Flyers can match what the Senators did on Wednesday night in Brady Tkachuk’s return to Ottawa.

Plus, Charlie & Bill discuss how the rookies in Philadelphia’s lineup have stepped up in place of injured (and underwhelming) veterans.

Cole Knuble, who wasn’t good enough to make the Philadelphia Flyers out of camp, is now averaging 1 goal per game in his NHL career after netting a pair against the Buffalo Sabres, leading the Orange & Black to a 3-1 win.

The Philadelphia Flyers will, in all likelihood, miss the 2027 Stanley Cup Playoffs because of their horrendous performance through the first 9 games of the regular season.

But with wins in consecutive games against the Ottawa Senators and Colorado Avalanche, Matvei Michkov and his teammates have provided a glimmer of hope.

Today, Charlie & Bill discuss what will get the Flyers back in the Eastern Conference playoff mix now that that they’ve won not just one but TWO games!

The Philadelphia Flyers looked like the worst team in the NHL as recently as last Thursday. Since then they’ve won their first game and now they have played a truly impressive team game against one of the league’s best teams, picking up a second straight win, and this one with a litany of AHL call-ups.

Bill, Steve & Charlie break down the win, discussing Matvei Michkov’s emergence as an offensive force, Oliver Bonk, Hunter McDonald and the rest of the youngsters in the lineup, and what’s next after a well played game against an elite opponent.

THEY DID IT! The Philadelphia Flyers have won their first game of the 2026-27 season, on the strength of Matvei Michkov and Porter Martone teaming up for a pair of second period goals to deliver Philly a victory on home ice!

Trevor Zegras’ empty net goal put the Flyers at 3 goals for the first time since game 3 of the Penguins series, and all is well, at least for one night.

Charlie, Bill & Steve break down the Flyers’ first complete effort of the season, Dan Vladar looking like he did last year, and if they can take this momentum into Monday.

Welp… here we are. The Philadelphia Flyers are off to a winless start through nine games, posting a 0-6-3 record as of Thursday’s loss in Detroit.

There are a plethora of issues right now, from the inability of Trevor Zegras, Tyson Foerster and Owen Tippett to generate offense, to the coach’s usage of Matvei Michkov and Porter Martone while relying on a non-NHL caliber 4th line to nearly equal the franchise’s (hopefully) future stars in minutes. Oh, and Travis Konecny, Rasmus Ristolainen and Cam York are all injured, but that didn’t stop a team source from leaking his displeasure with TK to Anthony Di Marco of Daily Faceoff.

Di Marco joins Charlie & Bill to talk about his article detailing the Konecny conversation, as well as Philly’s horrendous start, paltry offense, and nearly impossible playoff odds.

The Philadelphia Flyers have lost nine consecutive games to start the 2026-27 season. Sitting at 0-6-3 with only 11 goals on the season, the Orange & Black are no longer off to a slow start, they are just bad.

Matvei Michkov played a decent-enough game, scoring the team’s lone goal and setting up several chances, but somehow played 2 fewer seconds than Noel Acciari in the regulation loss.

Charlie & Bill do their best to keep their sanity breaking down another baffling effort from Rick Tocchet, Owen Tippett, Tyson Foerster and the rest of Philly’s underachieving lineup.

Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Flyers Podcast was on the scene in Voorhees as the 0-5-3 winless Philadelphia Flyers took the ice for practice before a road trip to Detroit to face the Red Wings.

The Philadelphia Flyers are 0-5-3 to start the 2026-27 season, and despite a decent OTL at home to the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night, the Flyers are on an historically bad run by record and goal-scoring.

With the fans calling for action, national headlines and insiders discussing a shake up, Rick Tocchet’s job security in question and underperforming/unavailable veterans on the roster, questions about a shake-up involving the coach, Travis Konecny, and others have begun.

Charlie & Bill discuss just HOW BAD the Flyers have been through 8 games, the possibility of trading a player like TK, firing Rick Tocchet, and a few reasons to believe the Orange & Black aren’t completely dead with 76 games remaining… just for fun!

Through 40 minutes, the Philadelphia Flyers appeared to be trending in the same direction of the first 7 games, an offense-less uninspired loss, although they did have more shots than usual, few of them were dangerous.

And then an intense third period with tremendous efforts by Oliver Bonk and Trevor Zegras forced overtime against the Seattle Kraken, in hopes of the team’s first win of 2026-27.

The Flyers were able to kill a nearly-heartbreaking too many man penalty in overtime, and were able to push the game to a shootout, where they went 10-4 a season ago. But it was not to be on this night as Trevor Zegras, Tyson Foerster and Denver Barkey came up empty, leaving Matvei Michkov as the lone scorer, while Vladar stopped 3 of the first 4 attempts but was beaten by Bobby McMann to seal the Flyers’ 8th consecutive loss.

Bill, Charlie & Ryan Quigley break down the loss, discussing Vladar, Zegras, and the team’s ridiculously bad start to the season.

The Philadelphia Flyers haven’t scored three goals in a game since April 22- game 3 against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The team has begun 2026-27 with seven straight losses and have lost 13 of 14 going back to the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Bill, Charlie & Mellerman break down the loss, discussing Joseph Woll, Oliver Bonk, Tick Tocchet and the Flyers’ lack of “compete.”

The Philadelphia Flyers are still searching for their first win of 2026-27 through five games, and with back-to-back games in Boston and then back home against the Carolina Hurricanes this weekend, it doesn’t appear like that first W is going to come easy for Rick Tocchet’s squad.

Today, Charlie & Bill talk about the few good things and multiple discouraging aspects of the season’s first couple of weeks including Matvei Michkov’s two goals and improved defense, Cam York playing some of the worst hockey of his career, Joseph Woll’s strong start and what it means for Dan Vladar moving forward.

Plus, a look at Saturday’s matchup with the Bruins, and (former?) Flyer Killer, David Pastrnak.

The Philadelphia Flyers scored their first power play goal of the season on Thursday night, as Matvei Michkov banged home a puck that squeaked under Linus Ullmark for his second of the year. But the Flyers couldn’t get any of their other season-high 29 shots on goal through the Ottawa Senators’ netminder, falling 2-1 on a third period power play goal by Carter Yakemchuk from a Claude Giroux feed.

Charlie and Bill break down the loss, Rick Tocchet’s new-look lineup, Joseph Woll’s game and the questionable officiating from a heartbreaker for the still-winless Flyers.

Should Philadelphia Flyers GM Danny Briere make a trade for Simon Edvinsson? Reports are swirling around the Detroit Red Wings and star defenseman Simon Edvinsson, who has reportedly requested a change of scenery in Detroit after contract negotiations stalled.

 The Philadelphia Flyers remain winless after falling 4-1 to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday night.

Tyson Foerster recorded his first goal of the year, but Philly couldn’t get anything else going offensively, falling well short of 20 shots on goal in Dan Vladar’s return to the crease following his opening night disaster.

Charlie & Bill break down the loss, discussing the winless start, and how Rick Tocchet can squeeze ANY OFFENSE out of this team, which has scored just five goals through four games.

The Philadelphia Flyers came in to their third game of the season looking to beat a Carolina Hurricanes team they haven’t beaten in regulation at home since a week before the 2020 season was stopped in March.

Sebastian Aho scored 10 seconds into the game, and added another in the third, but in between Owen Tippett and Matvei Michkov became the first Philly forwards to light the lamp this season, while Joseph Woll carried over his strong play from Thursday into this matchup, as well, making 32 consecutive saves after allowing a goal on the first shot of the game.

With a power play to end regulation and start OT, the Flyers had an opportunity to beat their White Whale, but a Tippett penalty a couple minutes into the overtime was all the opportunity Shanye Gostisbehere and the Canes needed to end the game.

Bill & Steve break down the game, discussing the Flyers being outshot by a whole lot again, as well as David Jiricek’s debut, Tyson Foerster’s start to the season, and more.

The Philadelphia Flyers entered 2026-27 with the expectation of at least matching their playoff berth from a season ago, thanks in large part to the expected maturation of their young core, specifically the 25U players like Trevor Zegras, Jamie Drysdale, Porter Martone, Matvei Michkov and Tyson Foerster. While it has only been two games, the Flyers don’t have a point from a player born in the 21st century.

Charlie & Bill discuss the lack of production from Philly’s youngsters, as well as the goalie tandem of Dan Vladar & Joseph Woll, and any potential lineup changes for Saturday’s game against the Stanley Cup Champion Hurricanes.

Joseph Woll kept a surging Devils team off the board through nearly 38 minutes, and the Flyers actually scored a goal in the first period, courtesy of Rasmus Ristolainen, but most of this game was played in Philadelphia’s zone as they were, once again, completely incapable of making a play or even winning a battle through two periods.

But with a chance to win a period and win the game, Woll made huge saves, one moments before Travis Sanheim put the Orange & Black up 2-1. Luke Hughes tied it up, and we got our first OT of 2026-27, where an offensive zone turnover became a rush for Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt, who won the game for Jersey.

Bill, Charlie & Petey break down the OT loss, the lack of offensive chemistry and a great night that ended on a sour note for Philly’s new goaltender Joseph Woll.

The Philadelphia Flyers left the ice to a standing ovation back in May, despite falling to the Carolina Hurricanes in four games. It took only 20 minutes for that good will to evaporate, as the Orange & Black trailed by two after the first period and a chorus of boos sent the boys back to the room. It only got worse from there, as the Flyers gave up three more in the second and had only mustered 12 shots on goal through 40 minutes.

Bill, Steve & Charlie break down a demoralizing home opener, discussing Porter Martone’s brief first period benching, Dan Vladar’s terrible stat line, and the importance of rebounding Thursday night against the New Jersey Devils.

On June 23, 2011 the Philadelphia Flyers acquired the 8th overall pick in that year’s draft, along with Jakub Voracek and a third rounder from the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for Jeff Carter. The following day, GM Paul Holmgren used that first round pick to select Sean Couturier. Coots, now the team’s captain, is set to become the third player in franchise history to surpass 1,000 games played in Orange & Black, and with his place on the roster all but guaranteed in 2026-27, his 16th season on the team’s roster surpasses Bobby Clarke for most years in the organization as a player!
