Next up in the draft rankings is one of the most underrated prospects in this year’s draft, Zach Benson. Like many other players in this draft, any other year we’re probably talking about Benson as a top three pick. In his third season with the Winnipeg Ice, Benson was third in the WHL in scoring,…
We’re back, folks! After a not quite as thrilling as the first round, but still pretty interesting second round, we’re down to four teams in the mix. That’s right, it’s time for the Conference Finals! And it’s time for, you guessed it, our next round of predictions. Let’s get into it. Hurricanes vs. Panthers Maddie:…
*Folks, all of your favorite Flyers writers that aren’t us (and sometimes Charlie) seem to have headed up to the cottage early this summer. The links be few, mates. Anyhoo, we’ve got stuff. For example, anyone else think maybe the Flyers should have done an actual search for a GM? Like other teams are doing?…
It is the wild, wild west when it comes to where Will Smith might land in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft. The top-ranked American skater has seen his stock steadily rise from the early rankings last summer as more and more scouts got to view him leading the U.S. National Team Development Program with his…
Welcome to the offseason, folks! The playoffs are starting to wind down, the draft is drawing ever nearer by the day, and before you know it, we’ll be deep in the true doldrums of the summer and left to figure out what the heck we’re supposed to be doing with all of this free time…

The Penguins…
*Oh, you mean your President of Hockey Operations is not calling games on the national broadcast of the conference finals? Yikes. How embarrassing. For you. Keith Jones will be part of TNT crew for Game 1 of Panthers-Hurricanes. He said after he was named Flyers president of hockey operations that he had planned on finishing…
Leo Carlsson is a joy to watch play. When you watch him on the ice, you can see exactly why there’s a solid chance he is going to be selected with one of the top 3 picks once the Draft rolls around. Carlsson stands at 6-foot-3, weighs 194 pounds, plays center, is a silky smooth…
The news of the week We had a bit of big news this week, and it’s at least prospect tangentially related. The Flyers named Keith Jones their new President of Hockey Operations, and removed the interim tag, making Danny Briere their official new General Manager. A lot’s being made about rebuilding, and rebuilding right, but…
Morgan Frost needed this year to be a big year. There is no mistake that the former first-round pick was on the verge of being yet another Philadelphia Flyers top prospect that eventually found himself away from the organization or buried in the minors because successful development didn’t happen fast enough. At 23 years old,…
