Make that six players the Flyers have now loaned overseas with the addition of Kirill Ustimenko.
Almost all of these names have one thing in common. All six players loaned out are likely to start the season in the AHL. And with the uncertainty of when that season will begun, the Flyers are allowing these players to stay in game shape in the mean time.
Kirill Ustimenko is the latest player to be sent overseas for the time being. He is heading back to his hometown to join HC Gomel of the Belarusian Extraliga.
