*The Flyers news is probably going to be light until we get closer to the draft, but we’ve got some stuff. Couple things. The best one is that Scott Laughton won an award for being a really nice and good human being. Trading him may be a good hockey decision but man it’ll stink if he leaves; just such a genuinely good person. [Flyers]

*In case you missed the news, Rocky Thompson will not be losing his job as the Flyers’ power play coach, despite the power play being historically bad. For some reason, the Tortorella and the front office think they can improve it anyway. [BSH]

*The Flyers are obviously going to have a bunch of Choices to make this summer, but there are a couple that are pretty big ones. [The Athletic]

*The Kranken my be tiring of the Dave Hakstol Experience. Thoughts and prayers, Dave. [Seattle Times]

*Alright, the playoffs. We have a new Cup Keeper! And it’s a woman! That’s fun. [Sportsnet]

*Things kicked off for the Vegas Golden Knights last night; what are the chances we get a repeat? [ESPN]

*Related, which teams do you think are under the most pressure to win this year? It feels like the answer is always the Leafs, honestly. [The Athletic]

*One of my favorite random Hockey Guys is Justin Bourne, and he’s doing a cool new series utilizing the new stats and data and whatnot that the league has made available. Looks like it’ll be pretty interesting. [Sportsnet]

*And finally, have you noticed the thing we are doing? Looking back at some cherry-picked Flyers playoff games from the past. For funsies. [BSH]
