-
Bonus Hockey Podcast: Just a Bunch of Guys
You can hear Ryne exasperatedly rubbing his temples while talking about the team in this one. There are so many things to complain about, which makes this team the same as it's been for far too long. We talk about the constantly changing lines, and the need to have at least one solid line that…

-
The Pigeon Coop 61: Animatronic Fans

-

Beer League: Happy St Pigeon’s Day
On this special St Patrick’s day edition of The Beer League, we ask you what you'd do to get hockey back and try to name a five-goal game while trying out some new beer. The Selection: Flying Dog: Mint Condition (Mint Chocolate Stout, 7.2%) Flying Dog: Brewhouse Rarities Irish Coffee (Irish…

The Pigeon Coop 54: A Lazy Deadline
The Flyers are rolling and climbing the Metro ladder. We can finally say that it's a possibility they'll get to first in the division, but will they? Does a playoff team need to make moves at the deadline, or do they know what they have? How about those Jeff Carter rumors? No? We're not gonna…
more -
The Pigeon Coop 53: Brian's Driving
Fantasy hockey brings everyone together, best frenemies. Fitz and Ryne don't trust themselves to steer the episode in the right direction so they're letting Brian do it. Talking about the loss to the Devils and trying to feel better about it. Respecting the hell out of Sean Couturier. A scary...
-
The Pigeon Coop 52: Innocent Gritty
Here's a question, is Alain Vigneault in consideration for coach of the year? Has he done enough, and what does he have to do to be considered? The way to get fans interested in the Flyers again might be Kevin Hayes' big personality, something that is lacking around hockey in general. There's...

-
The Pigeon Coop 48: Evening the Score 2
We spend the night reminding Ryne that he didn't hit the record button on our first attempt at this week's episode. As a result, you get a lot of insight into the stupid shit we think about doing. Carter Hart's injury forces the Flyers to make some changes, but we forgot to talk about Alex Lyon…

The Pigeon Coop 47: Carter Hart Misses His Pasta

more -
The Pigeon Coop 46: Dirty December
After predicting another strong month to follow November, the Flyers were hit HARD at the beginning of December. We’re getting mad at all the inconsistencies with the department of player safety, which means two straight weeks of anger! Why can’t teams wear their special jerseys beyond just the...
-
The Pigeon Coop 45: Mad for Content

The Pigeon Coop 44: Our Big Billy Penn
The Flyers have had a lot of success in November, so let's talk about their ability to continue that success. Fitz predicts we won't lose another game (already wrong) and we talk about the Flyers 3rd pair of defensemen. Raffl is injured, Vorobyev is back in the lineup and Aj can't stop mixing up...

The Pigeon Coop 43: Cookie Duster Szn
We're joined by Dave Morris from our "Brother" podcast Five Minute Major Radio for the first time and see how out of hand we can get.

-
The Pigeon Coop 42: Gone Cherry
Aj's gone again, but this time everything doesn't go way off the rails with Ryne in Charge. Everyone manages to stay on topic for AT LEAST ten minutes. We're talking about the Flyers point streak and Radko Gudas' comments about returning to Philly. Does he really think he's a dirty player? Why's…
more -
The Pigeon Coop 41: A Week for Idiots
The Flyers are putting their fourth line through the blender and calling up different players every night. Should they bother putting prospects on the 4th line? Is it Vorobyev's last last chance to stick? The NHL is full of idiots. A man goes to bat for the latest dumb think Don Cherry did, and...
-
The Pigeon Coop 40: Fitz's Big Mad

-
The Pigeon Coop 31: Preseason: Hotdog Heavy

-
The Pigeon Coop 30: Preseason: The Pigeons of Summer
In the last of our Aj-less episodes, Alex calls out sick so it's down to Ryne and Fitz to tackle this weeks episode. The first topic the guys tackle for the 400th time is the extensions for TK and Provy and a ridiculous rumor. Then they look at options for the 3RW spot that might not make people...
-
The Pigeon Coop 29: Preseason: Mac Attack
In the second of 3 episodes with Alex McIntyre as the guest host, she comes in to the studio and takes over this one. Also joining the team for this one is Josh Lyons from The Phifth Quarter making his second appearance on the show. We start out with a pretty normal conversation about UFA's and...
-
The Pigeon Coop 28: Preseason: What the Hell is a Chaffle
In this, the first of 3 Episodes where AJ is on vacation, Ryne and Fitz stumble their way through a very abbreviated prep sheet with the help of Alex back in studio again, this time as a Guest Host. The question of the day is not at all hockey related so they got off to a strong start. They do…
more -
The Pigeon Coop 27: Ron Hextall Lite
It's the last episode of Season 1 Fitz doesn't know what makes people want to leave a house, AJ can't pronounce "Paul Fenton", and Ryne thinks Hextall learned a lesson. We wonder if we should start to worry about Travis Konecny not having a deal yet, and talk about who we would rather give a...

We talk about the Flyers secret weddings, Michal Neuvirth's decision to sign a PTO and consider what Jacob Trouba's new contract means for the Flyers signing Ivan Provorov. We also get into some Reddit hockey copypastas and read a brand new fanfiction that could be coming to a television near you!
