On today’s episode, Russ & Rachel discuss the official hiring of Keith Jones as Flyers President of Hockey Operations and the removal of the interim tag on Danny Briere’s title as General Manager. What do we think of the hires? What are the pros & cons and will they be able to create a new culture for the organization? We also look into the New Orange Era and how it lands from a marketing perspective and what it could mean as a theme for the team moving forward. Finally we look ahead to the draft and free agency and try to predict what this team might do.
Jonesy tribute from Jim Jackson:
Our emotions can get pulled in opposite directions. I’m so excited for Jonesy and his new @NHLFlyers role. But I also lose my broadcast partner of the last 17 years. He’s witty, incisive and a joy to be around. I’ll miss our time together in the booth. All the best, my friend! pic.twitter.com/DxinfUypdz

Hopefully this will turn out to be a much more highly skilled, faster team. A balanced attack to be formulated, from the goal-mouth-out. This is the Flyers organization, finally playing the long game. They've got one more shot at being relevant in Philadelphia sports. Great show Rachel and Russ!!! Now I'm hoping for Zach Benson to be picked at lucky #7!
