Friedman: Notes: Hearing Claude "Choking Dog" Giroux to undergo hip/hernia surgery next week. Not a stunner, looked hurt in playoffs, aka EXCUSES. Back for World Cup to blow it

Johnny Gaudreau is a restricted free agent. He is negotiating a contract extension and said he plans to have a long stint with Calgary but would love to play for the Flyers toward the end of his career.

JJ on the Phillies Post Game Show mentioned that Primeau is just now feeling normal on a day to day basis since he retired. My god.

Giroux (and Ghost, WTF) both having right hip/ab surgeries. 10-12 weeks

I didn't think Ghost was keeping up his pace of his first couple months but damn he was still decent fighting through that

Yeah, I thought Ghost had just hit the "rookie wall". Really makes sense for both.

Here's a little bit of history on Myers

Flyers prospect Phil Myers dominating in junior ranks http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/fly ... 90361.html

Myers probably would have been a first-round pick in next month's NHL draft if the Flyers didn't have the foresight to sign the 6-foot-5, 208-pound free agent during last year's training camp.

Since then, the junior-level defenseman has blossomed faster than anyone could have expected, strengthening the Flyers' already-deep group of up-and-coming blue liners.

"There's no question" he would have been a first-round selection if he was in this year's draft, said Craig Button, the highly respected draft guru for TSN in Canada. "What a steal by the Flyers."

Provorov is playing on NHLN. Losing 5-1. Just turned it on and saw replay of a sick move he had on a sh break. Rolled off his stick before he could tuck it home.

Can't even figure out what he did to get it by the goalie--seemed to go in high to the goalie's left, but I don't know how he could have gotten it there after pulling it back...

up over the blocker. deke as if going to backhand and then put it back where goalie came from. hertl did same against rangers a few years back. righties have to go over glove so tougher. every dork in men's leagues tries this in warmups (never works).

Krikeys. I just noticed that the Flyers have 10 draft picks next month. Full complement of their own and an extra 2, 3 and 6

And a weird conditional 4th round pick with the Coyotes. They owe us a 4th this year or a 3rd next year. They don't currently have a 4th but they can acquire one and give it to us. Makes me think they will try and get a late 4th rather than give a 3rd next year. Who knows.
