As a Flyers fan, it’s easy to hate Sidney Crosby. In some cases, though, it’s also pretty easy to look right past that hate and see the stupidity, the irresponsibility and the lack of everything that is good in an action by another player, even if that action serves as a detriment to Crosby and…
Some may see it as bad luck to pick an opponent you’d like to face when the playoffs aren’t guaranteed. With the uncertainty the Flyers have lovingly given us all season long, we could realistically finish anywhere from sixth place to tenth place at this point. But, our team does hold their own destiny, so…

Remember what we wrote the other day, about how you can’t really hurt a broken toe too much more than it’s already hurt? It seems that Simon Gagne and the Flyers medical staff feels the same way, because there he was this morning at practice, skating his little heart out. The reports flooded in on…
The Cup Finals are here, and while we’ll likely be stepping up the radio game during the next two weeks or so, we’re here with our typical Wednesday show this week. On the show this week, Ben, Geoff and I spend a few minutes on the celebration of an Eastern Conference Championship, but much like…
Wow. This game was scoreless through two periods, but even then it was awesome. These are two fast, offensively tilted teams, each of whom had a hot goalie to steal several goals along the way. A 4-on-4 late in the second period led to about fifteen odd-man rushes in each direction. And though no goals…
On this week’s show, we discuss at great length the complex state of goaltending in the Flyers organization.
