*Got a bit of an Alexei Kolosov update yesterday, in the form of rumors, and it’s looking like we should probably just go ahead and write this kid off. Way she goes, Ricky. [BSH]
*Alright we’re still focused on Garnet Hathaway, because he was nice enough to give us something to talk about, and also because he’s cool and really wants to se the Flyers turn into a monster hockey team. [NBC Sports Philly]
*Honestly we needed this discourse this week, what with the Negative Nancy sect of Flyers fans deciding that Kolosov not liking America is Danny Briere’s fault. It’s good to hear that players really do like playing here. Shocking! [BSH]
*Several Flyers prospects have been invited to Team Canada’s “program of excellence” summer camp, which is pretty neat. [Hockey Canada]
*It’s been a long time since a prospect like Matvei Michkov has been a part of the Flyers organization, which makes rankings like these a lot more fun for us, the Flyers People. [The Athletic]
*There’s something interesting about guys who haven’t played much, or at all, in the NHL being top trade targets. Wonder where these two will end up (not the Metro please and thank you). [Sportsnet]
*And finally, Summer is for lists. Rankings and such. Because nothing is happening. And in that vein, we’ve put together what we think are the best five goals of the 2023-24 season! Feel free to discuss we love discussion. [BSH]
