*Folks! It’s the biggest news you could possibly imagine: the updated cheesesteak ranking is here. [BSH]
*Okay, and then in the way of actual news: you may have seen Nick Seeler and John Tortorella got into a bit of a shouting match on the bench during Wednesday’s game, and Tortorella offered some context to that yesterday. [BSH]
*Also, apparently not the only fight between player and coach on the bench happening this week. [Sportsnet]
*Anyway, that game for the Flyers really was just A Whole Thing, and that means there’s a whole lot to unpack from it, that’s for sure. [The Athletic]
*Despite the tempers flaring between Torts and a veteran in their last game, his handling of the kids might just be showing a different side to him. [BSH]
*Unsurprisingly though, given this start to the season, people are starting to wonder about his job security. [DFO]
*The Flyers aren’t the only team off to a weird and/or poor start to the season and left wondering what exactly they can salvage from this season. Which is all to say, it’s never too early to start thinking about the guys who could be moved at the trade deadline. [The Athletic]
*Or too early to start getting excited about the players who haven’t broken into the league yet, but might well soon. [ESPN]
*The Lightning are for sale! Well, sort of. [TSN]
*For the draft sickos here, you’d better believe we’re talking about the 2025 draft already. [Sportsnet]
*And finally, let’s all be normal about this, Sergei Bobrovsky just tallied his 400th win. [TSN]
