*In case you missed it, the Flyers opened up their regular season on Wednesday night with a loss to the Penguins which all of us and the coaching staff alike can agree was downright embarrassing. [BSH]

*It was embarrassing! What more can you say! [The Athletic]

*We have a lot of questions about how exactly that could have gone so sideways for the Flyers, but the Flyers themselves are still sort of looking around for answers. [PHLY]

*If nothing else, this was a good reminder for the Flyers that they need to turn the page and focus solely on what they do next after last season’s success. [BSH]

*Because, as we’ve seen, complacency kills! [BSH]

*Truly, it’s a game that should have been a real wakeup call for the Flyers. [Inquirer]

*But, as it turns out, it was not enough of one to propel them to a win over a much more difficult to match up with Devils team. [BSH]

*There’s a lot to unpack from that one, but there’s not a ton of unquestionable positives that we can pull from it. [NBCSP]

*It’s hard to pivot away from all of that, with all of the feelings involved, but we’ll make an effort. The Flyers made a little move yesterday while the big club was gearing up for their game, making a prospect trade to shake up the pipeline a little bit. [BSH]
