Flyers Talk: Stadium Series Loss, Sean Couturier Named Captain, Facing Bedard

It was a busy week for the Flyers, who saw their four-game win streak snapped in Toronto, lost to the New Jersey Devils in the 2024 NHL Stadium Series at MetLife Stadium, and named a new captain along the way.

On this week's episode of Flyers Talk with 97.3 ESPN Flyers Insider Kevin Durso, Brianna Barretta and Kevin sit down to talk about the week that was with the Stadium Series and look ahead to another week.

Before the Stadium Series, the Flyers had to rally back to earn a point against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday. What happened in that game that led to the win streak coming to a close?

Sean Couturier was also named the 20th captain in Flyers history on Wednesday. Why now for the naming of a new captain and is there any underlying messages behind this decision?

The 2024 Stadium Series provided a familiar result for the Flyers, another loss. The Flyers are now 1-4-1 in outdoor games after the 6-3 defeat, which started with a goal by Nico Hischier just 32 seconds into the game. What went wrong for the Flyers in the outdoor atmosphere?

It's a lighter schedule for the Flyers this week, as they return for their first action since the Stadium Series on Wednesday against the Chicago Blackhawks. This marks the first time they will face the first overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, Connor Bedard. What can fans expect to see from this game, and why is it so important?
