HAPPY FRIDAY! Today, we’re diving deeper into some of the louder rumors circling South Philly/South Jersey, discussing the Flyers’ reported interest in Edmonton Oilers’ defenseman Darnell Nurse, as well as the link between Ottawa wanting Rasmus Ristolainen and Danny Briere coveting one of Shane Pinto, Ridly Greig and Dylan Cozens.

Charlie O'Connor of the PHLY Flyers Podcast breaks down the rise of Swedish center Alexander Command, one of the fastest-rising prospects in the 2026 NHL Draft class. The Örebro HK prospect put together an outstanding season in Sweden, producing at a high level in the J20 Nationell while also earning time in the SHL against professional competition. 

Scouts have praised his hockey IQ, playmaking ability, compete level, and two-way game. With the Flyers holding the 21st overall pick, Command could be an intriguing option if he remains available.

Danny Briere checked a major box off his summer priority list yesterday, shoring up the backup goalie position by trading for Joseph Woll, along with defenseman Simon Benoit, and shipping out pending RFAs Emil Andrae and Sam Ersson, with a third round pick. Today, we’re grading Briere’s move, and discussing what’s next for the the Flyers offseason plan as Philadelphia looks to make incremental improvements following a Stanley Cup Playoff berth and round 1 win in 2025-26.

Charlie & Bill discuss the latest on John Carlson, free agency and trade rumors, and much more!

In this NHL Draft 2026 prospect profile, Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Flyers Podcast breaks down the game of Maddox Dagenais, the 6-foot-4, physical forward from the Québec Remparts who has been climbing draft boards ahead of the 2026 NHL Draft. With a powerful shot, strong net-front presence, and an increasingly well-rounded two-way game, Dagenais brings the size and compete level that NHL teams covet. 

If he's still on the board at No. 21, should Danny Briere and the Flyers make the pick?
