*Charlie, who is the best in the business as we all know, has a really detailed breakdown of all the kids that attended Dev Camp last week, and if you’re into seeing what the prospects look like this is a must-read. [The Athletic]
*Claude Giroux’s new team has a lot of exciting young talent up front. They also have a defense that is extremely sus. G will feel right at home. [TSN]
*There is a concerted effort happening to get the highly qualified women working in the game of hockey into the kinds of high-profile positions typically reserved for The Hockey Men. It’s pretty neat. [Sportsnet]
*And finally, does this feel like the lowest point of your Flyers fandom? It’s hard to not feel like that right now, eh? [BSH]
