*These dummies are absolutely, positively, almost certainly going to win out. Last night makes three in a row. RECAP!
*We learned yesterday that it’s looking like Rasmus Ristolainen is done for the season. Suboptimal, if you wanted to trade him this summer. [BSH]
*Last night marked Garnet Hathaway’s triumphant return to the lineup after missing just about an entire month with injury. The Flyers were hoping for a bit of a physical presence. [Inquirer]
*Obviously Hathaway had to be asked about his thoughts on the coaching change, since he wasn’t in the room when it happened. [NBC Sports Philly]
*Now that he’s in charge, Brad Shaw is working to learn the best way to optimize Matvei Michkov. Seems to be doing a pretty good job so far. [BSH]
*One thing is clear, the Flyers are having a good time now. Shaw is, too. [Inquirer]
*This whole thing gives the Flyers an interesting opportunity here: bring in someone brand new. Wholly different. From the outside. [BSH]
*It’s getting to be high time for Rumors coming from the NHL Insiders, and yesterday there was some chatter about the Flyers being one of the teams more likely to use the offer sheet this summer. [BSH]
*Obviously we’re all focused on the extremely tight race to the bottom, but those wild card races are still pretty tight too! [Sportsnet]
*The Canucks are the most disappointing team in the NHL this year? Huh, probably would be dumb to hire their coach then. [TSN]
*And finally, we watched a whole bunch of Jett Luchanko so you don’t have to. But you should, though. We learned some stuff. [BSH]
