Flyers Off Season Updates and Rumor Mill Summary for July 25th

Articles Flyers Johnny July 26, 2021 · 1 Comment

The NHL offseason has a lot of moving parts and It can be hard to keep up, especially with a large offseason due up for the Philadelphia Flyers. There are a lot of rumors that float around, often from both fake sources and credible sources. This is a new daily update mill that I want to start in order to provide quick updates (attached with sources/tweets) in order to address daily rumors that you might see on your twitter feed, or for those who don’t have twitter: these updates can come to your attention.

This update mill will be posted daily.

Flyers are interested in UFA centers Nick Bonino and Derek Stepan to fill the 3C Role

Expect the #Flyers to add a depth centre by Wednesday or Thursday.

I'm told that Nick Bonino and Derek Stepan are two names being taken into consideration in this regard. #anytimeanywhere

Flyers are extending interest in UFA goaltenders Jonathan Bernier, James Reimer and Jaroslav Halak

And then everyone took a breath. Checked in Sunday with GMs Don Waddell, Ron Francis, Bill Zito, Jarmo Kekalainen, Bill Armstrong and Chuck Fletcher after a crazy 7-10 days. And there’s more fun ahead.

As the #Flyers continue explore options to fill the back-up goaltender position, I'm hearing Jonathan Bernier is indeed one name to keep an eye on.#anytimeanywhere

Bernier got a low ball offer from Canes for the pending UFA. Carolina is incredibly frugal when it comes to paying goalies. Also keep an eye out for Laurent Brossoit as a potential UFA option. Perhaps circle back on Holtby. Canucks won’t retain $ as of now. https://t.co/etvKX38wOq
