*Oh yeah, and that little matter of Samuel Morin being a winger now. And it isn’t just a gimmick or a way to get the kid some time on the ice in camp. The team is really committed to giving it a shot. Wild stuff. [The Athletic]
*But with the Flyers pretty well stocked at wing, why move him? [BSH]
*Team leadership is heading into camp with the goal of turning things around after a rather abysmal playoff performance. [Inquirer]
*So, what should we be looking at during this year’s shortened training camp? There are some questions that need answering. [BSH]
*Kirill Ustimenko, who had a promising year playing with the Phantoms, had to have hip surgery, which is why he’s not on the camp roster. [NBC Sports Philly]
