·2 hr 4 min·5 clips
Chance and Taylor welcome Bill to discuss why the Flyers have been forgotten in the NHL.
This episode features a conversation with Bill from the Orange and Back Check podcast, an expert on the Philadelphia Flyers. Hosts Chance Watson and Taylor Wells acknowledge their own limited knowledge of the Flyers, prompting this guest appearance. The discussion centers on the current state and future outlook of the Philadelphia Flyers franchise. The hosts and guest discuss the Flyers' recent prolonged period of poor performance, which has led to a diminished national profile. Bill expresses a firm belief that the team is now in a phase of resurgence and building momentum. Specific players, prospects, or management strategies are not detailed in the provided transcript segment. The guest humorously notes that the hosts' difficulty remembering the Flyers' team name is understandable given the team's recent history. Bill's perspective is that the Flyers are actively working to re-enter the broader hockey conversation. The episode includes promotional mentions for the Hockey Podcast Network, which both shows belong to. They reference the network's goal of having a podcast for every NHL team, joking about expansion to hypothetical cities like Colbeck or Atlanta. A sponsored shout-out is given to The Hub Tavern, a hockey bar in Spokane, Washington affiliated with the Seattle Kraken. The tone is casual, humorous, and focused on insider hockey camaraderie. Listeners interested in the Philadelphia Flyers' trajectory from a dedicated fan's perspective would enjoy this episode. Those seeking deep tactical analysis or news on other NHL teams might find the focus too narrow.
