Flyers Daily with Jason Myrtetus: With the playoff season underway in the AHL we check in with former Flyers, NHL veteran and head coach of the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, Ian Laperrière. We discuss the challenge and advantages of adding young players at the back end of the season for a playoff push. Plus, we look closely at the game and off ice elements of Jett Luchanko, Nikita Grebenkin, Alex Bump and more.

Congrats you need to be with us
Hell yeah, keep your head up and keep skating. Glad you finished your treatments ❤
JASON!!!! CONGRATS ON YOUR TREATMENT BEING DONE!!!!! YOU LOOK AND SOUND GREAT!!!!
Blessing brother 🤘🏻🤘🏻
LAPPYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One of my playoff heroes!!!!!! Can't wait for the younger flyers fans to get a taste of real playoff hockey. There's something special when you see the random guys become folk story heroes (Leino, Kappanen, Lappy) or your favorite star player take his game to a level you never thought possible (Primeau, Gagne, Briere, those legendary runs by Richie and G).
Keep kicking a$$ Jason, we all get strength from seeing you handle this battle with class and integrity.
edit- I'm really high on Bump, but I did not think that was smart thing to say. He also said the AHL is the same speed and skill, just a bit stronger than NCAA. He just put a giant target on his back; that scares me. I love he's confident, but that's not what a pro says to the media. Keep that in the locker room and keep taking advantage of their soft D. Don't give them a reason to come at you with everything.
Jason lets admit it you’re awesome
Congrats Jason! Onward and upward. Keep up the great work.
Super Jason your done with your treatments Happy Day!!! I understand it was not a picnic in the park but the word for you now is Positive your a fighter though this you will win though this so glad for you 🎉😊
You look great Jason! You seem to be handling the treatments better and better! So excited for you. You are going to make it!
Look good Jason for final treatment. Adrenaline got you thru knowing today was it. Stay up ride the wave!! Chemo sucks. Had 4 /10 day cycles and I've stayed in remission now last 11 years.
What do you think of McDonald' and Samson?

Great that you're making progress. Glad you are enjoying the staggered starts on playoff games but once the Flyers get back in there you'll hate it. Fans in the playoff cities do.
Very happy to see you on the podcast today given your treatment yesterday. Glad to hear Lappy talk highly of Zayde Wisdom after his season last year and showed promise in the Covid season with Forester. It was overall a great interview.
Lost my father to cancer a few years ago at 64. I'm so glad you fought through it and came out victorious. Love you, man. Let’s go Flyers! ❤
I sm glad you made it through, so happy for you sir!
Take it one day at a time.
