What a disappointment. He's the anomaly of Flyers first round picks


Yeah, everyone thought they would take Olli Maatta. He's still only 22 but somethings just missing with him. Really looked like he was going to be a more skilled and less suspended Steve Downie.

3 unanswered in the 3rd, including Konecny clinching a roster spot :-D

I know pre-season, small sample size and all but the Flyers hit on nearly 30% (5-18) of their PPs in the last four games (BOS, NYI and NYR twice) and only allowed one in 17 tries short-handed. That has to be at least a little encouraging especially since special teams play was a big part of their first round exit last year.

MDZ out 4-5 weeks with lower body injury. He cannot stay healthy.

Will that solve the supposed cap issues because he'll go on LTI?

Don't they already have Ghost, Streit, Gudas, Shultz, Provorov and Big Mac?

Offered in person hearing, so likely 5 game suspension.

We should be a fun team but also the skill level just went way up offensively

Not quite the Wentz for Bradford excitement level but this team is going to be 10x more fun to watch now.

Your top 6 of Schenn, G, Simmonds, Coots, Jake, Konecny is awesome for the foreseeable future. Now you've also got two defenseman who are good defensively but also provide huge offensive support. I expect the goals to be way up this year

Can't wait for the new guys to help on the PP. That's really what killed the team last year. Hopefully help with the PK as well.
