The Flyers added three more names to the cut list on Saturday morning.
Despite strong play in the preseason from all three, defensemen Shayne Gostisbehere and Robert Hagg and forward Nick Cousins were sent to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms to start the season.
The Flyers roster now sits at 26 following the cuts.
Gostisbehere had three goals in three games. Hagg played in two games, recording no points and registering a plus-1 rating. Cousins had two assists and a plus-3 rating in three games.
Players that remain in camp with a bubble spot to make the roster include Colin McDonald, Chris Porter and Scott Laughton.
The Flyers currently have 16 forwards and eight defensemen on the roster.
The Flyers are next in action on Monday in New York against the Rangers. They have three games remaining in the preseason.
