I am in disbelief my name is in a byline in June … about hockey! Beyond grateful.
Congratulations are in order for Nick Seeler! Officially credited with 6 blocks tonight, his season total of 205 shot blocked sets a new single single franchise record for the Flyers. Nick surpasses Jason Smith’s 2007-08 mark of 204 blocks

I see a lot of people talking about news getting out there in drips and drabs, and leaks and how that impacts trades, etc.
I think it’s a good conversation and I’ll be sure we discuss at length on the next episode of

The Minnesota Myth have released an eleventh-hour statement on their Instagram denying there was ever a question whether their players would play tomorrow night.
However, at least one player has already come out publicly and said their statement is false.

Tortorella isn't lying about how proud he is of his team (independent of tonight's result). You can see it on his face and in his mannerisms. He looks like a proud, maybe nervous, father figure.

@NHLFlyers
outperformed predictions last year...
But tbh if they got the 6th seed in the lottery this year?
Probably a 75% chance that one of Hagens, Misa, Frondell or Ryabkin are there when they pick. Ofc a lot cam happen in a year...
But that would be ideal.
