Episode 181: Brian Propp | Longtime Flyers All-Star

Riley and Derek start the show by discussing their fun time at Flyers Casino Night. Jumping over to some Flyers talk they discuss the recent stretch of games and Matvei Michkov’s hot stretch. Moving on to another rookie, Riley’s been very impressed with Macklin Celebrini. The boys break down friend of the show Jim Montgomery’s new gig with the Blues, tip their cap to Sidney Crosby on getting his 600th goal and the Pittsburgh Penguins continued struggles, and comment on the Sabres improving. Before we get to our interview with Brian Propp, Nasty and Riles congratulate Jumbo Joe Thornton on his jersey retirement, and send their condolences to the family of former NHL referee Mike Hasenfratz who recently passed away.

One of the greatest Flyers scorers of all time Brian Propp joined us! Proppy talks to us about what he’s up to these days, his new book, and how his recovery from a stroke is going. Talking about his hockey career Propp tells us about his junior career, joining the Philadelphia Flyers, playing for Mike Keenan, and his signature Guffaw goal celebration. Moving along Propper talks to us about the 1987 Canada Cup, the 1987 Stanley Cup Final vs the Edmonton Oilers, some of the coaches he played for, some of the great leaders he played with, and his favorite cities he played in. Wrapping up we discuss Chelios’ dirty hit on Propp, the pregame brawl between the Flyers and Canadiens, and the best players Proppy ever played with.
