Hahaha that was an elite level flash of the glove by Vladar. #Flyers

The Flyers power play is definitely looking better but I think there's still one less than ideal pass being made per sequence that's not giving them the BEST shooting options. #Flyers

FWIW I think it's fine the Flyers didn't call up Alex Bump for today's game. If the Tippett injury is going to go beyond today, then yeah do that for Monday's game. He's been on a roll and the Phantoms are in Springfield, let him finish out the weekend today and go from there. #Flyers

Harry Styles sang a brand new song in memory of Liam Payne at tonight's MSG residency show and there are already full edits to it of 1D clips the girls work FAST.

Will be testing out the "Is there TOO much Lost Boys musical at once?" theory in November when I attend 2 events and the show in the same week. *The answer is obviously no, but I'm still going to feel awkward and stupid about it because I am me.

The Flyers are just hapless. It'd be comical if it wasn't so depressing. #Flyers

I'm fairly certain that my frustration level with the Flyers is at least partially related to the deluge of political ads broadcast during the games. I don't have to watch many of them otherwise.

I mean I dunno man. Jiricek obviously feels bad about that but it wasn't just him unable to clear the puck. #Flyers

Kirill Marchenko scored the same number of goals tonight as the Flyers top goal scorer for the season to date (Michkov). #Flyers

Tippett trying to speed through 4 Red Wings right up the middle pretty much guaranteed the goal in the other direction. #Flyers

That was actually really good follow through by Michkov to stick with the play. #Flyers

Shootout time. Vladar was fantastic in OT. #Flyers

Too much man in OT is a ridiculously unforced error. #Flyers

Someone needs to do a study on the psychological effect of the Flyers power play on the well being of the fan base.

There's something to be said for forcing a guy to the outside instead of going for the shot block. #Flyers

Eberle could have had that but Vladar makes the stop on the penalty shot and it's still a 1 goal game. #Flyers

That was certainly a period of Philadelphia Flyers hockey.

Once again I ask why Bunting is on the power play. #Flyers

This game is at least faster paced than previous Flyers games but it's just as sloppy.

There is absolutely such a thing as too much NHL hockey and this is too much NHL hockey.

Is Rick Tocchet on the hot seat? @sportsology.bsky.social & @rmiriam.bsky.social discuss the accountability shown by the players and Philadelphia Flyers Head Coach Rick Tocchet. Can they turn it around vs the Seattle Kraken? Plus, our Phantoms Tuesday report! #Flyers youtu.be/db4JHYBI9ZA

Is Philadelphia Flyers Head Coach Rick Tocchet on the HOT SEAT?
On today’s show, Russ & Rachel discuss accountability within the Philadelphia Flyers organization, on both the players and coaches. Do they have the right idea of what’s wrong and how to fix it and…

This is similar to the Bonk call up in that Studnicka has had early success with the Phantoms but different in that he's older with a decent amount of NHL experience. Honestly not sure how this helps in the grand scheme but we'll see. #Flyers

Did not have the Flyers imploding on my October bingo card that's for sure.

Seven Games. Zero wins. @rmiriam.bsky.social & @sportsology.bsky.social identify the missing pieces to the Philadelphia Flyers leading to another back to back set of losses. We also get into potential moves, taking ownership of the rough start, and more. #Flyers youtu.be/9x4s0JyzyqM

The Philadelphia Flyers season hangs in the balance after a DISASTROUS start.
On today’s show, Russ & Rachel break down the Philadelphia Flyers back to back vs the Boston Bruins & Carolina Hurricanes. We discuss poor decision making on and off the ice, Oliver Bonk’s callup,…

I keep telling people that hockey is fun, but I'm beginning to doubt that.

The Flyers this season have zero ability to harness any momentum. Like even when they do something good it's a total reset and they forget how to do more of the same.

This game is going how a Flyers vs Canes game SHOULD go tbh. The Canes are throttling the Flyers with their killer defensive structure. The Flyers are doing JUST enough to keep the Canes at bay until they don't. #Flyers

Rachel Donner @rmiriam.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
The Flyers just don't have enough sharpness to their game to sustain the attack on the power play.

Rachel Donner @rmiriam.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
There is definitely an argument to be made that Bonk isn't ready for the NHL yet (which is FINE he's still developing!) but when you're a little behind the play you're going to take penalties even if they're somewhat questionable calls. #Flyers

Both Benoit and Acciari have been net negative pickups for the Flyers thus far and have continued to be in this game. #Flyers
