Isaiah and Chef return after a Thanksgiving week hiatus with Episode 281 of the O&B Puckcast, joined by Mike Fink of HockeyHotStove.com.

On tonight's show, the trio examine whether the Flyers' current status as a playoff contender is sustainable—and what issues the team must address to remain in the hunt.

From there, the panel breaks down recent game action before diving into the latest changes with the Flyers' AHL affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. The discussion includes head coach John Snowden and his staff, along with spotlighting prospects who have legitimate NHL potential.

The show also tackles recent rumors involving Owen Tippett and the Vancouver Canucks, Flyers system adjustments, Michkov on the left wing, Travis Konecny's puck-management struggles, a special show announcement and much more.

Isaiah and Chef return with a special Sunday edition of the O&B Puckcast, joined by Anthony DiMarco of DailyFaceoff.com.

On today's show, the trio break down the Flyers' recent games and dive into the Thanksgiving-week hot stove and trade landscape—including rumors that the team is seeking another center and the timing of a potential Trevor Zegras re-signing.

From there, the panel takes another look at the Flyers' rebuild, comparing it to clubs that have executed a more complete teardown. With many fans wondering whether the current approach can truly produce a Stanley Cup contender, we tackle the topic from every angle to provide an objective assessment.

Enjoy this one as we head into a busy stretch of games and the Thanksgiving holiday!

*Correction: On today's show, Isaiah referred to a Sportsnet article discussing 19 year olds who belong in the AHL, NOT the NHL as he mentioned.

Isaiah, Chef, and Dan return with a new O&B Puckcast as we welcome Bill Meltzer from flyers.nhl.com and hockeyhotstove.com.

On tonight's show, we take a brief step away from the Flyers' on-ice storylines to get our first look at how several top prospects are performing almost a quarter of the way into their seasons. From Porter Martone and Jett Luchanko to Alex Bump and Denver Barkey, we dig into Bill's insights on their early progress. (🚨 We also discuss the Flyers trade of Dennis Gilbert for Max Guenette).

We then break down why the Flyers seem stuck on a treadmill — hovering just above mediocrity — and what's preventing them from stringing together strong, consistent play. We also dive into key storylines such as Rick Tocchet's usage of Matvei Michkov, the team's struggles in back-to-backs, Sam Ersson's inconsistency, the 4th line's lack of impact, the timing of a Trevor Zegras re-signing, and more!

Isaiah, Chef, and guest panelist Ron Mont (rnjmediasports.com) are back with a fresh O&B Puckcast, teaming up with Kevin Durso from 97.3 ESPN to dive into a wild week for the Flyers, both on and off the ice.

We break down a mercurial run where the Flyers managed to snag 5 out of 6 points, including a big bounce-back from Dan Vladar. Plus, we dig into Matvei Michkov's four-month hiatus and what it might mean going forward.

The crew gets into the heated Sean Couturier chatter—are the critiques fair, or are folks missing the big picture? We also look back on Pelle Lindbergh's legacy, 40 years after his tragic death, and pay respects to former Flyers captain Mel Bridgman, who passed away at 70.
