*The offseason rumor mill keeps on turning, and today we’re shifting our focus to the unfolding Auston Matthews saga up in Toronto, because it would seem that the Flyers are doing the same. [BSH]

*And, of course, we’re still working to unpack the Flyers’ reported linking to Darnell Nurse. [PHLY]

*The biggest topic of conversation, though, is the upcoming draft, and there’s still a whole lot left to dig into before we kick things off next week. And at the top of the list would be the Flyers’ willingness to move that first round pick to begin with. [The Athletic]

*If they don’t move that pick, though, they still have a bunch of interesting options before them. Like Nikita Klepkov, who breaks onto our Community Draft Board in the 26th spot. [BSH]

*It’s a big Klepkov day, it would seem. [NBCSP]

*Ilia Morozov is another interesting center that should be in the mix on the Flyers’ board. [Inquirer]

*And really, there’s no shortage of swings on upside that the Flyers could go for in their range. [PHLY]

*And finally, a look at how the defense shapes up and shakes out with Simon Benoit now in the mix. [BSH]
