Dan Vladar strong after break but Flyers LOSE first game back from Olympics | PHLY Flyers Podcast

The Philadelphia Flyers have lost yet another game to an Eastern Conference opponent, falling to the Washington Capitals in the first action coming out of the Olympic break, despite a solid performance from goaltender Dan Vladar.

Noah Cates scored to end an 18-game goal drought, tallying his first goal of 2026, but it wasn’t enough offense to keep up with the still-battling Washington Capitals.

Charlie & Bill break down the loss, and discuss what more performances like this could mean for Danny Briere, Rasmus Ristolainen and others at next Friday’s Trade Deadline.
