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.
The Flyers announced the final 23-man roster to start the 2018-19 season on Sunday.
A lot of the bubble players will get a look in Thursday’s preseason game against the New York Rangers, the final one on home ice in the preseason. Game time from Wells Fargo Center is set for 7 p.m.
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.
Despite the three-goal rally that made it a game again on the scoreboard, the Flyers were badly outplayed for a stretch of the game and made mistakes that can’t translate to regular-season play. More from the Flyers 4-3 loss to the Bruins in our Postgame Review.
A frantic rally nearly erased it a horrendous start. The Flyers scored three times in 2:44 to cut the Boston lead to one with 8:43 remaining in regulation. They could not get any closer though, as the Bruins held on for a 4-3 win over the Flyers at Wells Fargo Center on Monday night.
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.
