Michkov coming over will help the Flyers attract talent. People forget until the year of the draft, and all of the Russian prospect discourse Bedard/Michkov were considered 1/2 in the 2023 draft. Having an elite talent like Michkov will help PHI draw players in. @FlyersKnitty

Flyers defeat the Jets, 2-0. PHI played last night, and WPG did not making this win more impressive. Despite missing Couturier/ Drysdale, PHI controlled play and out shot the NHL's top team. That's the Flyers 3rd straight win and 4th win in their last 5 games. @FlyersKnitty

Trade makes sense from a Flyers perspective. Allison wasn't in PHI's future plans. Gurianov has skill being a former 12th overall pick. He just hasn't been able to stick with a team since being traded from DAL. Seems like a reclamation project for Philly. @FlyersKnitty

Couturier returns to lineup tonight for Flyers, which is a huge boost. Frost is a healthy scratch for the 7th time. At this point, the scratch is not warranted here. He's set up scoring chances for teammates, and they haven't capitalized. If you won't play him, have to move him

Giroux earned the right to go to the team of his choosing. When the trade was made it was hard to predict which team FLA or COL would have more playoff success. Either would have been a viable choice at the TDL.Not sure what the point of this is other than to stir controversy.

This is a much better deal for the Flyers versus the reported 3.33 AAV that was rumored to be the cap hit. Seeler was making 775 k on his last deal. With the cap going up and his recent play, this contract is deserved in my eyes and not one that will hamper PHI. @FlyersKnitty

Keith Yandle has had an amazing career so far but he simply does not have it anymore in terms of being an NHL regular. Sucks to see because he has been so dynamic offensively over his career however his play is actively hurting the team nightly. #BringItToBroad #NHL @FlyersKnitty

Crazy company for Michkov to be apart of. Also very impressive he had a higher points per game average than all these players. Elite talent. @FlyersKnitty #Flyers

KHL players that Matvei Michkov had a higher P/PG than at the same age: — Alex Ovechkin — Evgeni Malkin — Vladimir Tarasenko — Kirill Kaprizov — Nikita Kucherov — Evgeni Kuznetsov — Pavel Buchnevich Eventually, we'll stop talking about him. But wow is he a great prospect.

Congrats to @28CGiroux on reaching 1000 NHL games played. Not very many make it to 1000 games let alone with the same organization. Have watched Giroux his entire career and he is an all-time great Flyer and NHLer. He's a no doubt HOFer in my eyes too. @FlyersKnitty #Flyers #NHL

Today I said goodbye to one of my best friends James Raptopulos. We golfed together almost once a week for 20 years since I was 7 years old. Rest in peace to an amazing person. We'll tee it up again one day brother. ❤️

Flyers will be placing Rasmus Ristolainen on IR to begin the season. As a result, they did not have to send anyone down to become roster compliant. Looks like, PHI are running with 3 G, 8 D and 12 F. Brink, Foerster, Andrae, Zamula are all on the roster. @FlyersKnitty #Flyers

Makes some sense PHI buys-out DeAngelo, considering trade with CAR didn't occur. Looks like Flyers couldn't wait on CAR any longer. Understandable considering there was no guarantee the trade would happen. Buy-out frees up a roster spot for a young D-man to slot in. @FlyersKnitty

Would be great work by Briere to turn Krug not waiving his NTC to come to the Flyers into a positive. Makes sense Florida is an option as they were looking to add an offensive D-man. Have to wonder if FLA's 2nd rounder along with Denisenko or Samoskevich are in play. @FlyersKnitty

Now hearing Florida might be a possibility where the hope is that Krug might waive his NTC to go and could help facilitate the #Flyers trade with the Blues Nothing for sure but it’s being discussed

Flyers defeat Boston, the top team in the NHL, and a team they struggle with, 3-2. That's PHI's 1st win against BOS since OCT, 20th, 2021 Flyers now have 12 wins over top ten teams in the NHL this season Huge game from Konecny. Couturier's line was very effective @FlyersKnitty

Tough weekend for Flyers with back to back losses against NYR and PIT In the NYR matchup, PHI actually deserved to win based on their play Goaltending really took away some of PHI's momentum taking on PIT Have to wonder if Sandstrom gets a look here coming up @FlyersKnitty

When you look at factors that caused the Flyers to miss the playoffs the power-play might be the most crucial Flyers will finish with the worst PP in the NHL for the 3rd straight season which is an NHL record That and the 8 game slide squashed their playoff hopes @FlyersKnitty

Gauthier is in great company with this list. Tons of potential in his game/skillset. Likely the most important thing for PHI is his development at C. Sending him back to the NCAA where he'll continue to play as a C and grow his game is the best move for the Flyers. @FlyersKnitty

Every U20 player to put up as many points as Cutter Gauthier at the World Championships in the last decade: — Connor McDavid — Auston Matthews — Mitch Marner — Sebastian Aho — Patrik Laine — Seth Jones — Dylan Larkin — Nico Hischier — Juraj Slafkovsky Pretty strong company.

Flyers score on the power-play and get the 4-3, OT comeback win. Their 4th straight game with a PP goal. Zamula with a shot from the point and Farabee with the tip in front. His 2nd goal of the game, and 1st OT game winner of his career. @FlyersKnitty

One of the best players of the last decade plus. What a milestone for Giroux. Has had a great season with the Senators. 33 goals and 44 assists for 77 points while currently playing his 81st game of the season. Almost a point a game pace at 35.

With the way the Flyers were utilizing Brink, it seemed as though loaning him back to the AHL was on the table. Better to have him go down, play in a top line role, and get his confidence back versus sitting as a healthy scratch for a prolonged period of time. @FlyersKnitty

Seeler is a good 3rd pair D-man who sticks up for teammates, blocks shots, brings physicality. Also great locker room guy Despite that, max offer should be 3 years/2 mil. Anything more and would trade for assets. Especially with Andrae, Attard, Bonk in the pipeline @FlyersKnitty

On Seeler, sounds like the initial contract ask wasn't received overly well from Philly's side. Talks ongoing, I believe, but sounds like #LetsGoFlyers want him in the $2.5M-$3M AAV range, and Seeler's camp is looking for a fair bit more over multi-years.
