*Big weekend eh fam? Biggest news for us is the Flyers landed on a goaltender, signing Brian Elliott to a very reasonable two year contract. Giddy up!

*Now that we’ve had a few days to let Nolan Patrick-mania die down a little, let’s take a look at the draft and judge how well the Flyers did overall. [BSH] *Seems like overall, most people think Hexy and crew did pretty good. [Inquirer] *Here’s what we can learn from draft weekend as a whole….
*Folks, this weekend was pretty incredible. And the most incredible part was Nolan Patrick becoming a Philadelphia Flyer. [BSH] *Also incredible and huge and kind of unexpected? Ron Hextall traded Brayden Schenn. Lots of luck in St. Loud, dude! [BSH] *That trade gave the Flyers an extra first round pick, with which they selected forward…
*Focus on the Flyers, people, it’s a big week! And if Bob McKenzie is right (and he almost always is), then we will be welcoming Nolan Patrick to the fam on Friday night. [TSN] *Nolan Patrick has NHL hockey in his blood, and his uncle thinks he’s going to be a pretty special player. [CSN…

*For some incredibly annoying reason game three of the final isn’t until tomorrow, so why not kill some time making your own version of the Vegas Golden Knights via this fun little draft simulator. [TSN] *Trades are fun, and the Knights can make lots of them ahead of the draft for lots of different reasons….
