*Isn’t it fun when the rest of the world realizes Philadelphia is the center of the universe? So much happening in our city right now. Like this, the Flyers continuing to do awesome things to bring the game of hockey to kids who might not get to play it otherwise:
*Anyhoo, coming in at (tied for) #24 overall on this year’s 25U25 is center Jack Berglund, who appears to be a bit of a divisive pick among the fan base. [BSH]
*As someone who has presumably watched a lot of Flyers hockey over the last few years, you’ll be shocked to learn that it turns out that having a good power play is kind of integral to the overall success of your hockey team. [TSN]
*Dom over at The Athletic tallied up all of the scores in his annual Front Office Confidence Survey and honestly, where the Flyers ended up feels right. Trending up, but still not all the way back. Measured confidence, if you will. [The Athletic]
*Hey look, a trade rumor! In August! It isn’t the Flyers but still. [Hockey Wilderness]
*And finally, we’ve got the full NHL preseason schedule! Exciting! [NHL.com]
