This week’s serving of Broad Street Buzz content you might have missed.
We began the week looking at three burning questions for the Philadelphia Flyers coming into the 2019-20 season, with one of them having to do with the new additions on defense.
The preseason is underway, and the Flyers started it off by hosting the New York Islanders at the Wells Fargo Center.
General Manager and Team President Chuck Fletcher took care of business with his final Restricted Free Agent of the year, as he re-signed forward Travis Konecny to a six-year contract.
Philadelphia may have dropped their preseason opener, but a few of their players still performed well during the contest.
The Flyers continued their exhibition campaign by hitting the road to face the Isles in the final of a home-and-home series.
Roster cuts are part of the business, and the Flyers reduced theirs to 54.
Some of the Flyers prospects playing overseas have gotten off to great starts in their respective Swedish and Russian leagues.
Philadelphia entered their third preseason affair against the Boston Bruins looking for their first win, and we highlighted three players that were worth watching in the contest.
A fair amount of Flyers prospects have impressed early on in the preseason, but which have shined the most?
Tyler Pitlick, who was acquired from the Dallas Stars in the offseason, is still rehabbing a wrist injury he suffered during workouts, and his role on the team may not be so clear anymore with the younger players standing out.
More cuts! The Flyers made a substantial amount of moves to get their roster down to 36.
Konecny made his preseason debut for Philadelphia as they hosted the New York Rangers.
Carter Hart continued his stellar play in net for the Flyers as they defeated the Rangers by a score of 4-1.
