Tie My Skates

The fellas re-group to talk about how the NHL made an unconceivable decision picking Kevin Hayes over TK for the all-star game. They then discuss how Torts has started a war on technology, how Risto is now a top 5 NHL dman, and the Flyers recent success on the power kill. TK had a point streak, DG doubled stroked him w/ no jam. We then go into Hakstol’s Coach of the Year prospects, no seriously. And last, but certainly not least, the boys end the epi with a hilarious interview with former NHLer Jon Rohloff that is set to *stream* the internet. 

The All-Star squad of 4 returns for another year of podcasting to start 2023. The gang starts off by discussing the 2022 world juniors (or lack thereof) (04:05). They then take a dive into how our beloved 6’6 Finnish defenseman continues to make incredible strides in making himself the most hated Philadelphia athlete by injuring Carter hart. The lads then talk about the Flyers recent west coast success and how they continue to ruin their future (20:25).

The gang reconvenes for another bi-weekly gathering of contemplating if Ryan Ellis exists and seeing which one of the gang would give out two-handers to Travis Konecny (spoiler: it’s DG). The boys praise how useful Kieffer Bellows was for the Flyers (1:56), as well as, sharing our excitement for the return of Cam Atkinson.

The fellas end their episode with answering questions from fans as DG takes advantage of the opportunity to slob over TK again (1:02:53).

The gang returns to your sound waves for their Pelle Lindbergh episode. In this installment, the gang talks about how DG cried for several minutes during Claude Giroux’s return game to Philadelphia. He later takes his frustration out by riding a mechanical bull and failing miserably (00:41).  We then discuss how our new and improved medical staff has been doing a stellar job of keeping our prized boys healthy so far this season. All the while, the only injured players this year have been Farabee, Tippett, Brink, JVR, Coots, Atkinson, Allison, Laughton, TK, the fabled Ryan Ellis, Torts’ face and my pride (09:57). The squad then returns to their “My Guy” segment, where 3 out of the 4 of us were not completely embarrassed by their picks (34:02). DG then ends the pod with a soliloquy he wrote, hoping to one day meet Travis Konecny, while the rest of the pod says who they are thankful for in the Flyers world. Johnny explains why everyone should say Zack MacEwen (1:02:24). Happy Thanksgiving! Ho ho ho!

The fearsome foursome got together for the first time this month. The team had to battle through several of Coots’ strokes in the episode, but fear not, Z was able to get on his hands and knees and perform mouth to mouth resuscitation to revive him. It was hot. The gang discusses the historic SADurday in Philadelphia sports with the kick to the stones bestowed upon us from the Phillies & Union (4:13). We followed it by a little stick & sack tap to TK and Carter Hart, simultaneously, we provided a little soapy bum & encouragement spank to Risto as he takes shelter in Torts’ dog house (17:26). Z then goes on to exclaim why he believes TK should 100% be the Flyers captain (40:18). We all disagreed and called him a moron. Lastly, we all take turns on saying why Johnny is undoubtedly the best member of the TMS pod and we lay some ceremonial lilies down at a local field to commemorate the injured Matt Luff (again) (49:07).

The gentlemen start off the episode talking about the legendary contract from star-studded all Canadian defenseman Travis Sanheim (6:12).
