He may be just one of four Flyers that are pointless through the first two games, but Pierre-Edouard Bellemare isn’t letting that faze him.
Nor is he letting his age be a cause for concern.
Sure, 31 years old doesn’t seem like much to an everyday person. James Mirtle, who produces a yearly team-by-team comparison for age, height and weight lists 27.3 as the median in the league. That places Bellemare four years older than the average, and he’ll be turning 32 before the season ends.
On the Flyers roster, he finds himself as the fourth oldest to suit up behind Mark Streit, Nick Schultz and Boyd Gordon.
