*Folks… yesterday was not a good day to be a Flyers fan. It was just bad news on bad news on bad news! The Flyers came out of the Draft Lottery drawing as losers, falling back two spots to pick sixth overall. [BSH]

*Matvei Michkov was also snubbed for the Calder, falling outside of the top-3 and not even getting a nod as a finalist. [BSH]

*AND David Carle signed an extension with the Pioneers, officially committing to stay at Denver for the foreseeable future. So that’s one fun name off the board for the Flyers’ head coach opening. [FloHockey]

*Of course, it isn’t all bad news around here. For one, Sam Ersson has been named to Team Sweden’s roster for the IIHF World Championships, which is neat. [BSH]

*There was also a lot to like about the Phantoms’ showing on Sunday night, as they pulled ahead in their division semifinal series with the Bears. [PHLY]

*We’re still talking prospects around here, and our Community Draft Board has officially broken out of the top-10, and with that, we introduce another big and mobile defenseman to the mix. [BSH]

*A blast from the past, anyone? Sunday marked the 25-year anniversary of the Flyers’ five overtime game against the Penguins. [NBCSP]
