Haven't done an intro post in a while, so:

Hello! I'm Rachel & I primarily cover the Philadelphia Flyers NHL hockey team on @lockedonflyers.bsky.social.

I contain multitudes and will post about Doctor Who & other TV, theatre (my amateur passion) & other randomness!

We didn't see the Flyers best vs Tampa.

@sportsology.bsky.social & @rmiriam.bsky.social try to explain that lackluster performance by the Philadelphia Flyers vs the Lightning. What went wrong? Plus Jett Luchanko on the move in the OHL & our Phantoms Tuesday prospect report!

The Flyers are just half a step off in the offensive zone so far.

The Flyers lineup changes paid off vs the Devils!

@sportsology.bsky.social & @rmiriam.bsky.social break down the Philadelphia Flyers key adjustments that led to all that scoring & ultimately the win vs NJ. Plus, a Flyers vs Lightning preview & our Nemesis of the Week!

Thank you qobuz for reminding me how much I love the works of Ralph Vaughn Williams. Currently engrossed in Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis.

The short version is I met @legopolis.bsky.social at the Doctor Who Gallifrey One fan convention, we became fast friends over hockey, eventually started a podcast (RIP Hockey Feels) which got me recruited to host @lockedonflyers.bsky.social. The rest is wibbly wobbly timey wimey.

Let me tell you about how being a Doctor Who fan got me a career covering pro hockey.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Especially after all that money they put into it in renovations it has to be worth something to keep around for a while at least?

The Sirens 3rd line is 🔥 tonight. Accounted for 3 goals in the 4-0 win over the Ottawa Charge.

Girard: 2 G 1 A
Wheeler: 1 G 2 A
Hartje 2 A

Plus a 28 save shutout for Kayle Osborne.

Excellent second effort by the Sirens and Maddi Wheeler punches in the 3rd Sirens goal of the night!

Well thank you Trevor Zegras! Really great move to put the Flyers back up by 3.

As a die hard Philly girl in NY, it's been pretty easy to just root for NY women's teams and still despise the men. Of course I'll jump ship for WNBA Philly in a few years, but still.

Taylor Girard gets her second of the night. You love to see it if you are the Sirens!

The drive is SO MUCH easier with them playing at the Prudential though! And transit goes RIGHT THERE.
November 23, 2025 at 2:30 AM
It's such a no brainer to boost the Sirens with a Philly game but what do we know??????
November 23, 2025 at 2:27 AM
Tonight has me thinking about what could have been for a PWHL Takeover Tour game with the NY Sirens in Philly and the Kalty/Vladar Czech content we could have had.
November 23, 2025 at 2:25 AM
The Sirens FINALLY break through the scoreless tie as Taylor Girard finishes a Maddi Wheeler effort.

I talked to Taylor at camp, and she was eager to establish herself early in her first full season with the Sirens.
