It’s been a busy few days in Philadelphia Flyers-land. In addition to a full week of training camp, the Flyers played three preseason games (two of them split-squad) and cut 18 players from their training camp roster. Let’s just dive in with a couple quick hitters.
Myers, Friedman, Rubtsov among roster cuts
Philippe Myers, Mark Friedman, and German Rubtsov were the biggest names of the 18 Flyers who were sent packing this week, though none of them really come as a surprise. There was some hope that Myers would be able to turn this current youth takeover of the Flyers into a full-on coup by snatching a roster spot away from a less deserving veteran (*coughcoughMacDonaldcough*).
