Using Daily Faceoff’s fantasy projections as a guideline, we’ll review the five young players that are a big part of the roster and how they are anticipated to fare this season.

With a new season comes a clean slate, a fresh start to a new chapter in Flyers franchise history. There is always reason to have excitement at the start of a new season. Here are four things to be excited for in 2018-19.

Analysis on the Flyers final roster and the final decisions that were made this weekend.

The Flyers announced the final 23-man roster to start the 2018-19 season on Sunday.

The Flyers announced three cuts on Sunday afternoon, bringing the roster to 24. Defensemen Phil Myers and Mark Friedman and goalie Carter Hart were sent to the Phantoms.

There was more clarity in the Flyers lines at practice as the preseason winds down. Also, the Flyers released a statement regarding Jori Lehtera and updated injuries.

The competition for the final spots has entered the final week of the preseason, which includes three more games for the Flyers. The first is on Monday night at Wells Fargo Center, as the Flyers take on the Boston Bruins.

The goalies are the leading topic at camp now with Alex Lyon and now Neuvirth dealing with injuries. Brian Elliott is also working his way back from an injury. That has all eyes on Carter Hart and Anthony Stolarz, two goalies just trying to throw their name into the competition. News, notes, quotes and more from training camp.

The Flyers got off to another good start in Friday’s game, but the finish was hardly similar to the previous three games. The Flyers suffered their first loss in the preseason since Sunday’s opener, dropping a 3-2 decision in overtime to the Islanders. More on Friday’s game from Allentown in our Postgame Review.

Ryan Pulock scored the game-winning goal on a one-timer in overtime to give the Islanders a 3-2 win over the Flyers at PPL Center on Friday night.

For just the second time this preseason, the Flyers will be the home team. The game takes place in PPL Center, home to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, for the fourth annual preseason meeting in Allentown. Game time is set for 7 p.m.

The Flyers had some players looking to make good impressions do so in their second preseason game and certainly had veterans who showed some signs of midseason form. The takeaways from Monday’s 3-1 Flyers win over the Islanders in our Postgame Review.

Shayne Gostisbehere scored two power-play goals in the preseason home opener at Wells Fargo Center on Monday night in the Flyers 3-1 win over the New York Islanders.

The opponent remains the same on Monday night, but the Flyers come back to home ice for the first time. Game time is set for 7 p.m.

News, notes, quotes and more from Day 2 of Flyers training camp.

Notes, news, quotes and line combinations from Day 1 of Flyers training camp.

On Monday, the Flyers open rookie camp and Phil Myers is among the participants. But for him, rookie camp and the subsequent training camp to follow will take on a new meaning with a possible roster spot on the line.

Flyers defenseman Andrew MacDonald suffered a lower-body injury during an offseason workout and will be out for six weeks, according to GM Ron Hextall.

For the Flyers, the conversation seemingly grows every year with more and more prospects nearing the NHL level. That is no different this season, as training camp will feature a number of prospects vying for the chance to make the NHL roster. Here are five prospects to watch throughout training camp.

Ron Hextall’s goal from the day he took over as GM has been to build the Flyers into a Stanley Cup contender. With the roster where it is now, how close are the Flyers to being a true contender?

Shayne Gostisbehere was ranked as one of NHL Network’s Top 20 Defensemen right now, while Ivan Provorov was considered one of five defensemen on the bubble, sparking a bit of a debate showing how much Flyers fans value the 2015 first-round pick.

Robert Hagg is just one of the many defensemen who started in the Flyers system as a draft pick that has worked his way to the NHL and the Flyers present. As the team prepares for the 2018-19 season, the Flyers future on the blue line has started to become the present.

Both Ivan Provorov, and Shayne Gostisbehere are sharp defensemen but this isn’t the first time that the Philadelphia Flyers have seen this type of dynamic duo on defense.

It’s an absolute no-brainer that the Philadelphia Flyers re-sign Shayne Gostisbehere, but how should they go about it: Lock him up long-term or offer a bridge deal?
