With the new season comes storylines that are worth watching as the year progresses. Here are 10 that you should watch for in the 2019-20 Flyers season.

Alain Vigneault asked for surprises during Flyers training camp. With three prospects about to make their NHL debut as the season opens, he finally got what he wanted to see.

Some Flyers notes from Thursday, including the news that Morgan Frost will be sent to the AHL and an update on Nolan Patrick’s injury.

The Flyers have a Thursday night meeting with the New York Rangers, where they will dress a lineup very close to what can be expected in the regular season. Game time is 7 p.m.

Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher announced seven additional roster cuts on Tuesday that bring the roster to 27 with just two games remaining in the preseason and two days left until the team heads to Europe.

Two games remain before the Flyers hit the road for Europe ahead of the start of the 2019-20 season. It starts on Monday night when the Flyers face the Boston Bruins.

Saturday marks the final time the Flyers will take the ice at Wells Fargo Center before the home opener in Philadelphia on Oct. 9. Once again, there will definitely be a lot of veterans in the lineup. Game time is at 7 p.m.

With several veteran players making their preseason debut, the Flyers struggled to capture momentum, while the Bruins kept the foot on the gas all night. It helped the Bruins leave with a 3-1 win over the Flyers at Wells Fargo Center on Thursday night.

It’s back home for the Flyers as they continue a busy first week of the preseason with a meeting against the Boston Bruins on Thursday night at 7 p.m.

This year’s preseason opener pits the Flyers against the New York Islanders on Monday night at Wells Fargo Center at 7 p.m.

After three vigorous days of training camp practices on the ice, it’s time for the preseason games to begin. The first group of the day was the same lineup that will play in the Flyers preseason opener on Monday.

The first day of Flyers training camp did not come without some bad news. Chuck Fletcher said that there is still a way to go on a new contract with Travis Konecny and that forward Nolan Patrick will be out week-to-week with an upper-body injury.

The third-line winger competition is one of the focal points in Flyers training camp with prospects, veteran newcomers and returning veterans all in the mix.

As training camp begins bright and early on Friday for the Flyers and continues into the weekend with three on-ice sessions each day, here are five things to watch during training camp.

Five observations from the Flyers 5-4 shootout loss to the Islanders in the Rookie Game on Wednesday night at PPL Center.

The Islanders rookies were able to turn a 3-0 deficit and 4-2 deficit after two periods into a 4-4 game early in the third. In a shootout, Oliver Wahlstrom scored the only goal to lift the Islanders over the Flyers, 5-4, in the Rookie Game at PPL Center in Allentown on Wednesday night.

The conclusion of Rookie Camp is upon us, as the Flyers prospects will take on the Islanders prospects in a game on Wednesday night at PPL Center in Allentown at 7 p.m.

It may only be a couple of days of practice for the trio of Morgan Frost, Joel Farabee and Isaac Ratcliffe — all turning pro full-time for the 2019-20 season — but the chemistry is starting to form early.

For a few Flyers prospects, Rookie Camp is the beginning of a month-long journey to solidify a roster spot in the NHL. All eyes will be on two forwards in particular: Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee.

The Flyers rookies will be the first to take the ice ahead of the 2019-20 season with Rookie Camp. The camp will run from Saturday, Sept. 7 through Wednesday, Sept. 11, culminating with the Rookie Game between the Flyers rookies and New York Islanders rookies at PPL Center in Allentown.

With the offseason essentially complete except for a few re-signings to come, the guys look at what the Flyers did and analyze the offseason as a whole while also looking at some of the other signings and the teams in the Metropolitan Division and Eastern Conference.

When Monday came and went and the Flyers did nothing but address organizational depth, it was telling. For prospects like Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee, it should be motivating. It means there will be an opportunity to make the Flyers roster this season. There will be an open competition.

Flyers development camp wrapped up with a 3-on-3 tournament on Friday evening and a 5-on-5 scrimmage and shootout on Saturday evening.

One of the Flyers development camp invites was Carson Briere, son of Danny Briere. For father and son, it is a special week for a kid who grew up with the Flyers in Haddonfield, NJ.

There are three top forward prospects that are showcasing skills at development camp with their sights set on training camp in September, with a chance to make the Flyers roster.

The Flyers announced on Monday that 41 prospects will be part of development camp that will run over five days from Tuesday, June 25 to Saturday, June 30.

The Flyers season is over, and it sets up for an interesting offseason for GM Chuck Fletcher, one that begins now that the season is over and will carry over throughout the summer and as the 2019-20 season approaches.

The Flyers placed forward Jori Lehtera on waivers on Wednesday, GM Chuck Fletcher announced.

With Philadelphia Flyers prospect Morgan Frost improving each and every day, he very may well be here in the NHL sooner rather than anticipated.
