*Offseason holiday week? It’s slim pickings on the hockey news, pals! Good news, though: Bill Meltzer is out here trying to convince us that Mark Recchi (noted worst ever) should make the Hall of Fame. NO THANKS, Bill. [Flyers]
*So. Carter Hart is going to need a new contract. Pretty soon, too. But how do you determine what to pay a goalie savior? [BSH]
*Charlie takes a dive into the next Hart contract as well, while looking ahead at the Flyers’ 2021-22 salary cap situation. And the draft. All that fun stuff. [The Athletic]
*Sam Morin, coming off yet another pretty devastating knee injury, is still hopeful he can find a place on the Flyers. Seems like a stretch, but good on the kid for trying. [Inquirer]
*Prospects! Our little buddy up in Halifax continues to be a force on the ice. Hard not to love this kid already. [BSH]
*Only one Flyer makes this list of the best 25 NHLers under 25, and you’ll be shocked to learn which one it is. (Eds. note: you will not be shocked) [ProHockeyTalk]
*And finally, in “that’s pretty neat!” news, the Blackhawks have hired Kendall Coyne Schofield to work in their hockey ops department. Good for her. And them! [Second City Hockey]
