On today’s episode, Rachel & Russ break down the Philadelphia Flyers 2-1 OT win vs the Detroit Red Wings. We talk about another low event game where the game came down to the last minutes of regulation and the overtime, including Joel Farabee’s strong performance, Rodrigo Abols first NHL game, Ristolainen in OT, and more.
Then we discuss Danny Briere’s midseason press conference. We push back on some of his assessments and look for clues to the trade deadline from his answers on Rasmus Ristolainen, the rebuild strategy, Scott Laughton, Flyers prospects, and other individual Flyers players.
Plus this week’s mailbag where we answer your questions on Jett Luchanko, the nhl as a product, and more.

Good show. You guys covered many areas. I don't think we can start talking about interesting players that are being developed in the Farm for a couple of years from now.
After trying Mcconnels the show name will change to Locked on Mcconnels. Sp?
If we lose risto we also loose those last few games a day, and then everyone complains about our defense
Thanks again Rachel and Russ. I agreed with Russ today. As long as Torts us in the organization, development will be a problem. We will continue to be a .500 team, with players dropping off in LHV once their contract is up. A fun topic is our three goalie nightmare. I see only two options. One, demote Kolosov and risk him returning home. Two, trade Ersson. We are at the bottom of the league with our goalies and Ersson isn't the future. I'd try to trade him for a center; one that needs a change of scenery. We need a center, and a pick would only delay the process of finding NHL caliber players. The other two seemed to do well when Ersson was injured, so why not. Kukko would have been nice, but the Rangers were probably not excited to be dealing with a team that is so close to home. Any centers that might be available? Thanks. See you tomorrow.
Ristolainen is a better skater has a looks like 4 Seasons with 40 points plus with Buffalo
It's not entertaining or sexy hockey. But Torts is satisfied with his grind style of game.
If the NHL wants to "grow the game"… look less at one-off European games and look more at streaming accessibility. An absolute joke that I can't just buy an NHL package and get all games via an app.
Nobody's are intouchables on that team 🏒🤔
What is the rush Russ? Let the market build and wait for teams desperate for right shot d-man help up their offers. It’s unreasonable to think Briere should have made a deal by now. Let this thing marinate. With all due respect, I’m glad you aren’t the GM.
