*Okay so they lost, yes, but they appeared to remember how to play hockey last night. So… progress? RECAP!

*So you’re thinking about firing your hockey coach… [BSH]

*If we have learned anything through these first couple weeks of the season — and we’ve definitely learned some shit — it’s that the Flyers need to stay out of the dang penalty box. [Inquirer]

*We’ve also learned that if you want to win hockey games in the NHL you are going to need to score some goals. The Flyers haven’t been doing a ton of this. If you’re a subscriber over at Charlie’s website, you can read his thoughts on whether this is a snake bite or just a crap hockey team. [PHLY]

*Speaking of crap, it’s time to talk about Egor Zamula. [BSH]

*You know what though? Sometimes teams get off to a bad start and the go on to have great seasons. Win the Cup, even. You never know! [The Athletic]

*Is it too early to talk about next year’s crop of UFAs? The answer of course is no, never. [Sportsnet]

*And finally, the NHL has a new toy for all of us to play with. How fun for all of us! [ESPN]
