It’s RANK WEEK! With three Flyers games announced in the first 15 overall Philly selections, today seems like a great day to talk about the rest of the list, especially the games that didn’t make the Top 25.Despite a lack of championships, there are plenty of compelling Flyers games starring Claude Giroux, Mike Richards, Eric Lindros and more over the last 44 years. Where will the 2010 winner-take-all shootout against the Rangers place? Is the comeback against Boston bigger than Game 6 in 1987? Is there enough representation of the 80s?Charlie & Bill break down the list and share their memories of each game. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Let’s talk goaltenders! We’ve talked a lot about the high-end talent the Philadelphia Flyers need to acquire and develop in order to one day compete for a Stanley Cup, and that conversation mostly revolves around top-line forwards, and top-pair defensemen. But goalies are pretty damn important.Sam Ersson showed signs of viability as a starter last season, but the heavy workload when he became the only NHL-caliber netminder on the roster torpedoed his numbers. Ivan Fedotov is finally here, but he’s a huge question mark as a 28-year-old rookie. Alexei Kolosov is allegedly coming over. Last year’s draft picks have a ton of potential but need time.Charlie & Bill take a look at the goalie situation on this Thursday edition of PHLY Flyers. Learn more about your ad choices.
