*So they’re really going to play a whole season not having won more than three games in a row. That’s wild. Also, that game last night flat-out stunk. If you missed it, no you didn’t. Recap.

*Had a little bit of news yesterday; after some rumors flying around that he wanted to stay in Sweden, the Flyers signed Jack Berglund to his ELC. So he’ll be coming! Cool! [BSH]

*There’s been a lot of talk of the importance of the Flyers’ young players playing in meaningful, important hockey games. But some of the Flyers’ best Kids have already been there before. [Inquirer]

*For those watching from afar (and for us too, kinda), the Flyers’ entry into the playoff race came as a bit of a surprise. Here’s a look at how they got here. [Sportsnet]

*Now that Trevor Zegras has finally gotten a good, long, sustained look at center, Charlie took the time to do some Analysis to see if Zegras at center works as well as Zegras at wing was working. [PHLY]

*Boy do these dudes love to tell you what they’re hearing, huh? Anyway here’s what this dude is hearing. [The Athletic]

*Everybody loves a redraft, right? In fact, a redo of the draft in which the Flyers ended up taking German “The Germ” Rubstov sounds like a great idea. We should do that for real. [ESPN]

*The latest power rankings, in the form of the top headline currently dominating the discourse for each of the league’s 32 teams. [Sportsnet]

*And finally, not many people were calling your Philadelphia Flyers a playoff team at the start of this season. It’s fun to revisit what people thought would happen, especially when the reality ends up being way, way better. [BSH]
