In Saturday’s edition of Bailey’s Daily, we’ll be talking the latest Philadelphia Flyers news, stories, highlights, and more from the last day.

We took an inside look at the future of Philadelphia Flyers goaltending, Brandon Wheat Kings goaltender Carson Bjarnason, with the help of Wheat Kings goaltending coach Tyler Plante and Bjarnason himself.
Carchidi Column: The Flyers’ 2023-24 campaign can still be a very good one, even without the postseason. That revolves around general manager Danny Briere and his ability to acquire valuable draft picks in the coming weeks.
One place Briere could start? Veteran forward Scott Laughton, whom the Flyers are reportedly listening to trade offers on, per TSN’s Darren Dreger.
If the Flyers do manage to acquire a first-round pick for Laughton, it will be thanks to the Elias Lindholm trade that helped set the NHL trade market in a significant way.
Elsewhere on the roster, the Flyers still have defenseman Sean Walker, who is a very highly-rated asset around the NHL.

The effects of the Lindholm trade officially reached eastern Canada; the Montreal Canadiens received an absolute haul in Friday’s Sean Monahan trade.
With yet another center now off limits, the lack of a first-round pick has significantly hindered Boston Bruins trade efforts.
The NHL is returning to the Winter Olympics in 2026, but which Calgary Flames have a chance at being in attendance for the games?
Pittsburgh Penguins superstar Sidney Crosby took some time to reflect on the news about the Olympics, as well as the possibility of playing for Team Canada in a few years.
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman offered some… interesting comments on the Hockey Canada situation on Friday afternoon.
