6:43 ok... I'm 55 and have been a Flyers fan since I could say....Flyers. The constant crazy and chaos... Would be s little more easy to take, if we won a cup like...once a decade! 😜 Then again, as my family has always said....the Flyers spirit was born, the day after Rexy's burned dowm and the team wore black arm bands at practice....lol. It's actually kinda true! The cup years, the Broadstreet Bullies days. When a bunch of these Canadian kids got Banished to Philly after the expansion and after a few years, the people of Philly dae that these kids worked just as hard as they did. Been hard to get that spirit back since the 80s! But, it's starting to feel like....maybe it's coming back? It'll never be an Ed Snider team again. Comcast...argh.... Still kills me. But, maybe Ed's spirit can inspire them...when they need it this most!
I’m 51 years old so i was too young for the Bullies but i grew up with those great 80’s teams that just came up short. I have lost faith in the Flyers management for over a decade as my family gave up our season tickets of 25 years back in 2011. They don’t know how to manage the Cap as they always have bad contracts that prevent them from upgrading the team. They refuse to have patience and do a real rebuild like the Blackhawks are doing now. There is a reason we haven’t won a Cup in 49 years and it’s because the organization continues to make the same mistakes with every new regime. .
My two children that follow team with me are probably sick of hearing me say that I’m tired of watching the same team of Giroux, Simmonds, Vorachec, JVR, Hayes, RE-tread goalies, expensive & injured free agent Dmen. I want to see young & fast kids racing up & down the ice raising hell. No more cycling for 60 seconds without a shot on goal. Live with some failure s as the young kids learn the NHL game. Next year we will have 6 of the first 50-60 picks. All of these players that just missed this year’s roster had better worry about next year’s crop of young & fast 18 year olds. The logo of the Flyers represents speed!!!
The combo of a “Fan” who’s realistically optimistic plus a beat writer makes for the perfect podcast.
Really enjoy your show guys, LFG
Charlie is correct about Torts fascination with skating speed. Makes perfect sense.
Winning hockey games. Making playoffs. Seeing what happens. I’m more than willing to see if Luchanko can help make that happen.
Helps that our options at center are dumpster fire, landfill and toilet seat
Always finds a way to be negative, you guys have mastered it really. At this point it is almost an artform. Maybe the most Flyer thing ever.
Wheels up on the Jett...let him fly!!
I think the Chaos of the team is one of the things that keeps the team from actually rebuilding and being an annual contender.

You think Torts gives a shit what the fans think? Jett is here (for now) because the coach thinks he’s earned a spot

Excellent show guys. 100% okay w/ Luchanko as C3. I think there is a chance he has a higher number next to the C as the year progresses.
Been a Jett pick defender since day one but I’m with Charlie on this 110%. Set him in Guelph and forget
I'm excited for Jett.
The way the both of them talk they sound like they know more about the flyers then Torts Jonsey and Danny B put together 😂
Charlie can now copyright claim the Flyers
