*How’d everyone’s weekend go? The Flyers sure did have themselves a Whole Ass Weekend. Let’s start with Friday’s Draft Day 2:
The Flyers had no second round pick, so after taking Cutter at 5th overall, they weren’t up again until pick #69. They took a large American winger. [BSH]
At 133rd overall they took a… large American winger. [BSH]
They got spicy at 197 and took a large Finnish winger! [BSH]
And with their final pick of the draft, 220 overall, they took a “small” (5’10”) forward. [BSH]
*Chuck Fletcher said he wanted to do some particular things at this draft, and, well, he did them. [Inquirer]
*As far as their big exciting pick? We might have something with that one. But it’ll be a while before we know. [BSH]
*Wrapping up the draft with the winners and the losers, as one does. [ESPN]
*The Flyers wrapped up Draft Day by making a trade for Tony DeAngelo. Who didn’t come cheaply. [BSH]
*When you bring on a guy like DeAngelo there are bound to be… visceral reactions. [BSH]
*Also, you know the meme about the worst guy you know saying something good? [Inquirer]
*Charlie digs into the X’s and O’s of this trade, breaking it down perfectly, as usual. [The Athletic]
*And finally, we had a couple of podcasts drop this weekend, they’re pretty fun. Check them out! [BSH]
