In that, I was fairly critical of the macro discourse surrounding the franchise; the Hawks are far from a rudderless ship, though many national/league-wide writers paint it as such. In thinking about the results of that poll, I was mindful of another poll at the same outlet.

One bold prediction for each Flyer in 2026-27 -
With the countdown to the season opener less than six weeks away, and training camp less than a month from starting, it’s a good time to see what might be in the cards for each Flyer on the roster for the 2026-27 season. But let’s push the envelop a bit, and set the bar a little higher than usual. Here then is one bold prediction for each Flyers player regarding the upcoming 84-game season. Some might be a bit lofty. Of course, if every one of these predictions became reality, the Flyers would probably have 450 goals for the season and be in the area of a .939 points percentage. Please don’t bet your house or life savings on any of these suggestions. You’ve been warned. Goalies Dan Vladar With 29 regula

NHL Prospect Watch: St. Louis Blues -
In the lead-up to the 2026-27 hockey season, we’re diving into the WHL prospect pool for every NHL team. To be included in this list, a player must be recently drafted, signed to an NHL contract, or meet the NHL’s criteria for rookie status. These prospects are cruisin' for a Blues-in. Adam Jecho A hand injury marred a significant chunk of Adam Jecho's season and forced him to withdraw from the 2026 IIHF World Junior Championship, but the 6-foot-5, 201-pound forward still put up strong minutes on a significantly improved Edmonton Oil Kings squad. The Zlin, Czechia product posted 36 points (10G-26A) in 47 games before adding another four points (1G-3A) in seven playoff matches. Jecho, 20, was named an alternate captain for Edmonton in his third season in the provincial capital. St. Louis selected him with the 95th overall pick in the third round of the 2024 NHL Draft and signed him to a three-year, entry-level contract in March of 2025. Jech
