*Well folks, with the exit interviews in the rear view we are officially into the offseason, time to do some offseason things! Like, perhaps, sign one of your RFAs to a contract extension! [BSH]

*We’ve been saying — and will probably continue to say — that this is a big, big offseason for Danny Briere, because what comes with a little bit of success? Expectations, that’s what. [Inquirer]

*One thing that might help GMDB with his efforts to improve this team is the fact that the Flyers are, evidently, become an attractive place to play again. [NBC Sports Philly]

*It’s not just about adding new guys, though. We’ll need our current guys to be as good or better than they were this season. You might be worried about Tyson Foerster after his weak playoff showing, but you don’t need to. [BSH]

*Gonna need Matvei Michkov to step it up in a big way, and his efforts will probably be helped by the coach playing him in the correct position. Danny Briere has thoughts about this. [BSH]

*The World Championships have kicked off and a couple of Flyers are already making some noise. [BSH]

*Like… just look at Porter Martone out there for Team Canada. Look at our boy. [BSH]

*The season has been over for five minutes, sure, but that doesn’t mean it’s too early to start thinking about next year’s lineup. [BSH]

*Related, here’s one free agent each team should target this offseason. [The Athletic]

*Definitely not too early to be thinking draft, so here’s one of the latest rankings for the top 45 kids that will be available for the picking in a few short weeks. [Sportsnet]

*And finally, while we’re talking draft, guess what?! It’s BSH Community Draft Board time!! Get your votes in, enjoy our write-ups about your choices, argue about the choices in the comments… whatever blows your hair back, babies. [BSH]
