Phil Myers

Defenseman Phil Myers and forwards German Rubtsov and Carsen Twarynski were called up from Lehigh Valley. Forward Mikhail Vorobyev was sent down. Defenseman Sam Morin was sent to the Phantoms on a conditioning assignment. 

The Flyers final 23-man roster includes three injured players on the non-roster injured list — but not long-term injury list — and 20 active players. There are a total of 11 forwards and seven defensemen on the roster. To complete the final cuts, Joel Farabee and Phil Myers were sent down to the AHL.

There is one final tuneup for the Flyers in the preseason, and this one is a special exhibition. The Flyers will face one of Switzerland’s teams in Lausanne HC to close out the 2019 preseason on Monday afternoon.

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.

The Bruins got a goal with 1:46 left in the third to tie the game then won in overtime with a power-play goal to hand the Flyers a 4-3 defeat on Monday night.

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.

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.

After three solid skates at practice, the Flyers did appear to put some of the work from practice into action, but for Alain Vigneault, there was more of an opportunity to learn and grow from a preseason-opening 3-1 loss to the Islanders.

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