*By scientific method (Google search), there are 54 games between the Flyers' first preseason game and us. Remember when Egor Zamla wore number 54? He wore that number for a while. Anyway, like everyone else on the planet, we here at Broad Street Hockey are in Olympic mode and have asked a very important question: Which Flyers are best suited to compete in the Summer Olympics? [BSH]
* Speaking of skilled flyers (perfect transitions), the Summer Showcase has several young players thriving. [BSH]
*The Flyers almost certainly won't sign any free agents this summer, with August nearly over and no one even hinting at that possibility, but that doesn't mean there aren't a few players who could help them this season. [Bleacher Reports]
*On a related note, there are still plenty of unsigned RFAs out there waiting to be signed, some of them pretty good. [Sportsnet]
*Martin Necas is not on this list. [TSN]
*I've said it before and I'll say it again: the offseason is the time for making silly lists and rankings, and this one in particular is long. [BSH]
*And finally, it's that time of year again, when Dom from The Athletic asks us all to vote for how much confidence we have in the front office. Flyers fans, please vote and make your opinion known. It's always interesting to see how this turns out. [The Athletic]
