It has been repeated ad nauseam. This upcoming Philadelphia Flyers season is all about finding out. Finding out how these young players are going to develop further in the NHL and how some other, younger, prospects will look when they first take the ice in the best league in the world.
We can go on and on about the younger players — Tippett earning his contract, Foerster becoming a dominant two-way forward, Frost sticking as a top-six center — but something that has not been discussed enough is that this is also a season of finding out about the older veterans on this team, as well.
