*Welcome to last weekend of August, fam. Meaning September is mere days away. And what happens in September? Hockey, baby! That’s what! Anyhoo, what better on a Friday morning than to go through every single Flyers prospect and think about where they’re going to play this season. That seems fun, no? [BSH]
*Speaking of what’s going to happen this season, here’s a list of some guys who the Flyers are really going to need to step it up after someone lackluster results in 2025-26. [Inquirer]
*Related, next up on the BSH Summer 25 Under 25 is perhaps the guy we are looking to bounce back the hardest: Matvei Michkov. [BSH]
*Gotta tell you, these American players are getting out of control with the demands! [Sportsnet]
*In a couple of years, we’re going to get a return of the World Cup of Hockey — the first since 2016! Is it way too early to talk about this? Probably, but it’s August 28 so get over it. These are the teams who might be a little bit better than they were back in the Before Times. [Sportsnet]
*And finally, do you like having someone smugly answer your Flyers-related questions? Do you enjoy being talked down to by members of the local media? Well then you’re in luck! It’s mailbag time over at The New York Times! [The Athletic]
