According to Elliote Friedman, the Philadelphia Flyers could well be looking to part ways with fan-favorite Jake Voracek. The 31-year-old winger is coming off of a pretty productive campaign, but with the team in clear need of some retooling and a hefty cap-hit to his name, this isn’t surprising.
I’m going to stress that this situation has been described as “not acrimonious” to me, but Philadelphia and Jakub Voracek have discussed that it might be time for a change, as well. Voracek is expected to be left unprotected for the expansion draft (and was told so), where former Flyers coach Dave Hakstol would weigh in.
