*It was a big weekend for the Flyers (do you consider Friday the weekend? it’s a stretch but let me have it), with the new front office Triumverate, as it’s being called, sitting down in front of the mics for the first time. The start of the new era of orange, as it were. [Inquirer]
*Here’s five things to takeaway from the press availability as a whole, in case you missed it. [NBC Sports Philly]
*And here are ten things we need to know about Keith Jones, a guy we all know pretty well already, it seems. [Inquirer]
*Evidently Jones’ role in that aforementioned triumverate will be “big picture” stuff. [Inquirer]
*This whole thing has had a mostly positive vibe, and that makes sense; people LOVE Keith Jones. For good reason. He’s great. But this move is, fundamentally, more of the same from the Flyers. [BSH]
*The overwhelming consensus, though, seems to be “let’s give these guys a chance.” [The Athletic]
*Even the worries about the inexperience of both Jones and Danny Briere can be pushed aside, apparently. [NBC Sports Philly]
*Speaking of Briere, the main takeaway from Friday’s presser regarding the new GM is that he has 100% full control over turning this thing around. [The Athletic]
*Anyhoo, Felix Sandstrom and his disappointing season were next up on the slate for review. [BSH]
*And next up on the draft board, thanks to your votes, is no surprise: it’s Adam Fantilli. [BSH]
*Speaking of this upcoming draft, if the Flyers are smart, they won’t be picking a defenseman. [BSH]
*And finally, a brand new Flyperbole, with the boys taking on the Jonesy hire. Naturally. [BSH]
