*Well the Flyers once again had victory snatched by the hands of defeat or whatever that saying is, dropping last night’s game in overtime after the game-tying goal was disallowed because Owen Tippett doesn’t understand how lines work. RECAP.

*Perhaps you noticed The Big Thing: Tyson Foerster is back with the boys! Carl Grundstrom, thank you for your service. [BSH]

*Apparently, before the game, Leon Draisaitl gave Matvei Michkov some sage advice. That’s nice! [Inquirer]

*Getting back to last night’s game, you may have also noticed that Nikita Grebenkin was scratched for Nic Deslauriers. Perhaps it is time we retire this strategy? [BSH]

*Rick Tocchet, like all of us, would like Owen Tippett to get it tf together. Just be good every game, dude! If you can do it sometimes you can do it all the time! [NBC Sports Philly]

*Turns out everyone is talking about giving Trevor Zegras a contract this week! 8×8 Danny get’er done. [The Athletic]

*The Flyers, ever annoying to me personally, have been going to overtime a lot this season. Some would say too much. But anyway, if they’re going to make the playoffs they’re going to have to take advantage of banking those loser points. [BSH]

*And finally, when a couple of historically terrible teams turn it around in what feels like an instant you gotta ask: these dudes for real? [ESPN]
