    Looking ahead to Flyers 2025 offseason, and this year’s NHL Draft

    The NHL Draft is still weeks away, but with the NFL Draft coming up on Thursday, let’s get in on the fun with the Flyers!
    Plus, the mailbag question of the day: the potential to land Leon Draisaitl or any of next year’s (2025) class of free agents.
    And, of course, some more John Tortorella talk because it wouldn’t be a Flyers show without it!

    Philadelphia Flyers re-sign Ivan Fedotov for 2 years, $6.5 million

    Philadelphia Flyers re-sign Ivan Fedotov for 2 years, $6.5 million

    The Flyers are never done. On Tuesday, Danny Briere re-signed the most-talked-about the 27-year-old backup goaltender in the league, Ivan Fedotov for what seems like a boatload of cash.
    Charlie, Kelly & Bill debate the contract, as well as discuss the players who most likely won’t be with the team in 2024-25, like Cam Atkinson and Ryan Johansen.

    Examining the Flyers offseason plan as Stanley Cup Playoffs begin

    Examining the Flyers offseason plan as Stanley Cup Playoffs begin

    We’re still a Philadelphia Flyers show, first and foremost. But we can’t ignore the beginning of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. We got a 7-6 game between the Jets and Avalanche. Matt Rempe-Mania is running wild in New York! Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but the Leafs are trailing the Bruins!
    Charlie and Bill also look back at a few topics from exit interviews, like the status of Cam Atkinson, Alex Bump becoming a “high end” prospect, and more!

    Reacting to John Tortorella and Danny Briere’s end-of-season press conferences

    Reacting to John Tortorella and Danny Briere’s end-of-season press conferences

    On Friday, the Philadelphia Flyers officially closed the book on the 2023-24 season with media availability for head coach John Tortorella and General Manager Danny Briere.
    Bill & Charlie share their reactions to the day’s news, including the fact that Rocky Thompson will be returning to coach the power play despite historically bad results in his first 2 seasons, and that Ivan Fedotov and Sam Ersson will be the goalie tandem next year, in all likelihood.

    What’s Danny Briere’s plan in second offseason as Philadelphia Flyers GM? | PHLY Sports

    After a surprising 2023-24 season that saw the Philadelphia Flyers miss the postseason in Game 82, the question now is, what’s next? What’s next in the rebuilding plan for the front office, and John Tortorella. What direction should GM Danny Briere take this summer- stay the course? Make more subtractions? Or accelerate the rebuild?
    Charlie, Bill & Kelly discuss some potential offseason moves, as well as discuss Jeff Carter’s career and the Arizona Coyotes’ final game.

    Flyers post-mortem: John Tortorella, state of the rebuild, & what’s next for Philly? | PHLY Sports

    Flyers post-mortem: John Tortorella, state of the rebuild, & what’s next for Philly? | PHLY Sports

    The Flyers season ended on Tuesday night when the Montreal Canadiens iced the puck with 7 seconds left, allowing Shayne Gostisbehere’s Detroit Red Wings to tie up their game, sending it to overtime and ending Philly’s chances of making the postseason. Losing to Washington was just adding insult to injury for a team that spent nearly 4 months in a playoff spot.
    Charlie, Kelly & Bill take a look back at the last few nights of the Flyers season, the 8-game losing streak, as well as some of the brighter spots (Sam Ersson’s bounce back, Tyson Foerster’s development) before turning the page on 2023-24.

Pretty Good

Casual listener/reader from the BSH but have been impressed with this podcast and the hosts. They’re not perfect but can foresee them getting there and soon. I will continue to listen and engage. Keep it up👍

Charlie O’Connor

The only reason to listen to this podcast is to get Charlie O’Connor’s input and analysis. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and articulate, and he’s bogged down by the rest.
I’ve listened on and off over the years to BSH, and I tuned in most of this year, and the rest of the crew are just insufferable. They’re your basic, whiny fans who are fortunate enough to have a mic in front of them. None of them actually know anything about hockey outside of the Flyers, and it constantly shows. They’ve been doing this or some iteration of this show for long enough, you’d think they’d have grown a bit by now.
Unfortunately, this is where Charlie is now, and it’s the only place to listen to him, so I will continue skipping through each show until he is present.
Oh, and change the intro. Every time I’m welcomed and greeted to the show, I have to stop the impulse to turn it off it sounds so bad.
