*The Final doesn’t begin until the 27th. What are we supposed to do with ourselves for nearly an entire week?! [NHL.com]

*Charlie takes a deep dive into the man who has somehow become Flyers’ fans most divisive player: Shayne Gostisbehere. [The Athletic]

*On the draft and who the Flyers might target if they decided to keep the 11th pick. [BSH]

*Anyway apparently Philadelphia is a Blues town now, which is kind of annoying. Although the choice between rooting for the Blues or rooting for the Bruins really isn’t a hard one for most, it would seem. [NHL.com]

*It is nice to see long time fans on the cusp of the end of a Cup drought, though. It’ll be us someday. [St. Louis Game Time]

*With the Sharks out of contention they’ve got a lot to do to try and keep Erik Karlsson and Joe Pavelski with the team. If they even want to stay, that is. [ProHockeyTalk]

*And finally, DGB goes down a playoffs losers rabbit hole and somehow comes out on the other side believing that the Penguins are better than all of them. Hmm. [The Athletic]
