*Ran the numbers and there are 41 days between now and the Flyers’ first preseason game. That is somehow a lot of days and not that many days. We’ll be knee-deep in hockey before we know it. Anyhoo, we’re already up to #20 on the Summer 25 Under 25, thanks to a bunch of ties, and it’s your boy Alex Bump. [BSH]
*One of the Flyers’ late-round draft picks from this year’s draft is heading from Finland to Harvard, which is pretty neat. Don’t see that path taken very often. [NBC Sports Philly]
*If you’re a subscriber over at Charlie’s website, you’ll want to check out his season review for Owen Tippett, which also includes some thoughts on what he might look like in the upcoming season as well. [PHLY]
*In case you missed it, Team Canada came out on top at the Hlinka Gretzky Cup tourney, and there were a few notable standouts worth taking a look at. [Sportsnet]
*You know how normal life makes you just like… tired all the time? Always tired. Maybe we could take a few pointers from the professionals on how to maximize our rest. If it works for the athletes it could work for us too, eh? [The Athletic]
*And finally, nothing is really happening in hockey, so maybe you’ll enjoy listening to some new music? We’re certainly enjoying it around here. [BSH]
