Hey, everybody, and welcome to the shootout. My name is Bill Mats, joining me in the

Xfinity Mobile Studio. It is Philly's number one hockey beat writer Charlie O'Connor. And

Charlie, today we are talking about the thoughts of the thought man. That's what we're going to

be doing. Elliot Friedman on Monday's 32 thoughts expanded on his hockey night in Canada comments,

his report that the flyers are most likely looking like they're going to re-sign Christian Dvorak.

And the reason I wanted to get into this today, Charlie,

because it wasn't as if there was a ton of new information presented that we didn't talk about on Sunday, but it just really tickled

me, honestly, because Elliot Friedman, on 32 thoughts, which as we were just saying off the air,

the preeminent hockey insider and the preeminent hockey podcast took time out of their day to go back to his

comments from hockey night in Canada to be like Flyers fans are mad, huh? And I found that very funny.

On Monday's 32 thoughts, Elliot says, I got a couple DMs from Flyers fans who are really mad.

They're like, this is not the Flyers news we want to hear.

We want to hear about Zegras extensions and not so much about Dvorak.

Dvorak is a little bit of an older center.

We shouldn't be extending that guy.

We should be taking care of Zegris.

Why are we not trying to extend Zegris? This was his, this was his summary. I am guessing some of the language toned down for his family audience. And his response was, you guys need to take a chill pill. You guys really need to calm down.

Life is not that linear.

Of course they're going to try to extend Zegris.

I'm sure they're talking about it.

As a matter of fact, I believe that they are talking about it.

People can do more than one thing at a time.
