O&B Puckcast Episode #288 Flyers Fumble Into February with Anthony Mingioni

Isaiah and Chef are joined by Anthony Mingioni (HockeyHotStove.com) to discuss the Flyers' January decline, as the team has lost 11 of its last 13 games, falling outside the playoff picture heading into the Olympic break. The panel examines whether the slide could influence the front office and alter the broader rebuild plan. They also analyze Rick Tocchet's messaging in interviews and press conferences—particularly as it relates to Matvei Michkov. Key factors behind the downturn include positional needs, special-teams struggles, and subpar goaltending.

The show concludes with a segment featuring Anthony DiMarco (DailyFaceoff.com), who discusses the Flyers' likely moves ahead of the trade deadline and evaluates the front office's ability to pivot midstream in the rebuild. The conversation also covers the return of Rasmus Ristolainen, whether ice-time expectations are inflated, and more.
