| Erik Johnson | | RD | 35 | 3 of 3 | 76
P3
| A team looking for a veteran, who can add depth to their lineup, might be interested in acquiring Johnson from the Buffalo Sabres. Easily defined. Checking 'D'. No frills. Doesn't bring much offense. Takes care of his zone first. Provides push back physically. Through his first 48GP in Buffalo he averaged 14 minutes TOI at even strength and the penalty kill. Johnson was credited with 88 hits and 65 shot blocks. Expiring contract. $3.25 million cap hit. | Feb. 21, 2024 | Feb. 23, 2024 |

His offense has taken off. Now on track for over 30 goals. As of Feb 10th he had scored 21G-36A 15G on the PP - also a (+16) defensively.

| Erik Johnson | | RD | 35 | 2 of 3 | 76
P3
| Veteran - right shot - defender who has averaged 14:11 TOI - 10:58 ES - 3:12 PK in Buffalo this season. Third pairing. Does not have a role on the power-play. Provides very little offensively. Leans 2-way / Shut-down 'D' Through 41GP he was credited with 57 hits and 57 shot blocks Average pace. Simple with the puck. Winning pedigree. Leader in the room. Competes. Doesn't shy away from contact or battles. Nearing the end of a solid career. | Jan. 27, 2024 | Feb. 4, 2024 |
| Morgan Frost | | C | 24 | 3 of 4 | 79
L3
| Generally answering the challenge he has been presented with the Flyers. His primary element has always been offense. He has the pace and puck skill to impact the game offensively, but isn't 'high end elite' - so Philly has asked him for more defensive detail / buy in / and he's vastly improved in the category. At the All-Star break 39GP - 7G-15A - (+6) On the season he has averaged 15:28 TOI - 12:57 ES - 2:29 PP - does not PK 5G-11A at even strength Not physical - credited with only 22 hits and 32 shot blocks Room for improvement in the face-off circle (45% | Jan. 27, 2024 | Feb. 2, 2024 |

P3
| Seeler played 50 games before the All-Star break for the Flyers He provides fantastic value in relation to his salary (775k) Averages 16:58 TOI - 14:51 ES - 2:02 PK - Doesn't have a role on the PP Big body - rangy - takes away time and space - engaged - detailed Rotates very well on the PK - efficient shot blocker Credited with 65 hits and 141 shot blocks in the first 50GP Third pairing who can slide into second pairing in a shutdown role. | Jan. 27, 2024 | Feb. 2, 2024 |

L3

| Jamie Drysdale | | RD | 21 | 1 of 1 | 82
P2
| Drysdale was originally drafted in the first round (6th) by Anaheim in 2020. His career, so far, has had its share of starts and stops due to injuries. When at his best he projects as a potential second pairing 'D' at even strength, but one who needs to be paired with more of a 'stay at home' partner. Drysdale is a 'Transitional Defenceman' who quarterbacks the power-play. He leans distributor more than shooter. Good feet. Walks the blue line to create space and open up lanes to make plays. Joins the rush as an extra layer via zone exits. Average defender who isn't punishing physically. Relies on active stick and jumping to space ahead of opponents. | Jan. 7, 2024 | Jan. 9, 2024 |
| Morgan Frost | | C | 24 | 2 of 4 | 79
L3
| The Flyers want Frost to play with more detail in all three zones - and bring consistent compete He has been trending in a positive direction - especially in his last ten game segment from December 14th - January 6th - producing 3G-4A - (+3) Ice time ranges from 13:00 - 19:00 depending on special teams Deployed at ES and PP Element is offense. Sees the ice. Can make plays in traffic. Crafty with the puck on his stick. Rarely engaged physically. Not the kind of player who will grind out shifts along the wall or be relied upon in key defensive zone scenarios. 3F - trending 2F with offensive upside - not yet fully established. | Jan. 4, 2024 | Jan. 7, 2024 |
| Nick Seeler | | LD | 30 | 2 of 5 | 79
P3
| Not much has changed with his game since the puck dropped to start the season. Primary ice time comes at even strength and the PK. Good size. Moves well. Has range to close on opponents. As the calendar flipped to January - he led the Flyers 'D' with a (+13) rating Reliable. Responsible. Consistent compete. Exceptional value from a player on an expiring contract paying only $775K Any offense he brings is a bonus. | Jan. 4, 2024 | Jan. 7, 2024 |
| Oliver Bonk | | RD | 18 | 4 of 5 | A-
P2
| Bonk was selected by the Philadelphia Flyers in the first round (22nd) at the 2023 entry draft in Nashville. He's the kind of defenceman who can be thrust into a variety of roles. Bonk has good size. He's engaged in the defensive zone. He can escape pressure and skate pucks up ice on his own occasionally - or join the rush as an extra layer. He has an undervalued shot from range and has proven he can score on the power-play. Best described as a 2-way 'D' who provides better than secondary offense. There are times he overplays his route in the defensive zone and opponents slide off him down the boards. Something he will need to adjust to on the big ice at the WJC. | Dec. 19, 2023 | Dec. 22, 2023 |

| Marc Staal | | LD | 36 | 2 of 2 | 70
P3
| Veteran 'D' who is nearing the end of a solid career. At this stage he's a 6th or 7th defenceman who can be moved in and out of the lineup. A bit of a security blanket. Averages around 14:00 TOI when dressed. Deployed at ES and PK. Pushes back along the wall and out front his net. No issues blocking shots. Skating is barely at the NHL level.

He contributes on the PP in a middle bumper / deep slot role. Johansen also has some long 'lags' in his game. There are nights he is capable of more output and consistent consistent compete. Average plus defensively but he does take key defensive zone draws for the Avs and averages over 55% in the face-off circle. Element is offense. More of a shooter / finisher than play maker.

| Oliver Bonk | | RD | 18 | 3 of 5 | A-
P2
| Evolving / 2-way 'D' who can be used in a variety of roles. At the junior level Oliver is deployed in key defensive zone scenarios / match-ups The bulk of his ice time comes at ES and PK.

| Matvei Michkov | | RW | 18 | 4 of 4 | A-
L1
| After a slow start to his KHL season that resulted in him being a healthy scratch playing for SKA he was loaned back to HC Sochi and his game has come back to life Over his last ten game segment Michkov has played to his offensive identity - scoring 3G-4A He's averaging 16:30 TOI and being deployed at ES and PP#1 His off the puck detail will have to continue to improve and be more consistent - late offensive zone exits for example - and his skating will definitely need to go to another level as he matures. He's a capable skater at the KHL level but the NHL is much quicker. Overall, however he has started to regain his confidence and play to his offensive identity. Positive progress. | Sep. 30, 2023 | Oct. 4, 2023 |
| Alex Ciernik | | LW | 18 | 1 of 1 | D+
RL
| Element is offense. Motion player who has good puck touch. He sees the ice and moves the play efficiently off his stick. On the PP he sets up on his weak side flank and leans distributor more than shooter. Light overall. Values time and space. Not a player who can be thrust into key defensive scenarios. Skill wins out on projection. Mid-later round draft target for 2023 | Apr. 5, 2023 | Jun. 28, 2023 |
| Travis Konecny | | RW | 26 | 2 of 3 | 73
T6
| His role evolved in 22/23. In the past the majority of his ice came at ES and PP. This past season his role on the PK increased to an average of 1:50 TOI per game. His overall average ice time spiked to over 20 minutes and he led the Flyers in scoring for the second year in a row. He also flipped the script and scored more goals than assists. He brings energy, compete, and a 'rat' mentality. The type of player who can get under the skin of opponents. He doesn't block a ton of shots or get credit for a lot of body contact. His three zone detail also ranges. He needs to play more organized at times. He needs to improve upon his (-35) rating over the past 2 yrs. | Apr. 6, 2023 | Jun. 22, 2023 |

| Hulking right shot defender who clearly leans shut down 'D' Closes on opponents Physical Gets in shooting lanes in defensive zone Room for more small area quickness - needs to time his gaps appropriately to contain opponents and not allow them to slip off - Simple with the puck - very little offensive upside | Jan. 25, 2023 | Jun. 13, 2023 |
| Oliver Bonk | | RD | 18 | 2 of 5 | B+
P2
| Right shot 'D' who leans 2-way 'middle pairing' on projection Competes - plays a sturdy game - pushes back - has an edge to his game at times - doesn't shy away from confrontation Ability to be used in all situations but his ceiling offensively is likely secondary offense at best Gets in the lane on the PK - fronts the play Capable with the puck - outlets responsibly - not likely to score a lot at the NHL level / mid-range secondary scoring is possible. | Apr. 13, 2023 | Jun. 13, 2023 |

| Michkov dressed at the MHL, VHL, and KHL levels this season in Russia. He produced offense at every stop. More impressive was the fact he wasn't distracted by the fact he played in three different leagues, with three different teams. Michkov is elusive. He plays quick and fast. He's a threat off the rush, has a great stick, and makes plays in a phone booth. He's a potential difference maker offensively. Although he's not tall in stature, he's sturdy and rarely gets pushed off the play. There were times he was used in all situations but he leans top line scoring forward who will create on the top PP unit in NHL. | Mar. 14, 2023 | May 3, 2023 |

1B
| Second half of his 2023 season had some ups and downs. Struggled with consistency right to the end of the year at U18 Worlds. When dialed in he positions himself well and uses his size to his advantage. There are times his read / react / lateral push is on time and his length moving side to side result in big stops. Other times he finds himself positioned too high - sometimes outside the paint - and he struggles to get to the back post. Good gloves. At times pucks find him in traffic due to stature. Sitting tall in his butterfly is a work in progress. At times he makes himself small / leaning forward. Solid foundation to build upon. Consistency will be key. | Apr. 30, 2023 | - |

P2
| Big body - Coveted Right Shot 'D' 2-way defender who does not project to run a first unit NHL power-play but can match up against top opponents and provide some push back physically Used in all situations at the OHL level London Knights Skating is sound on straight lines - Quicker decisions required - at times - with the puck on his stick - Significant upside overall - potential to be used in variety of roles is a bonus | Jan. 25, 2023 | Feb. 7, 2023 |

BU
| Big body goalie who uses his size to his advantage when he is playing composed / between his posts. When he gets too high in his - crease and needs to travel further to make back post stops - he can be exposed with his lack of elite lateral quickness. Good coordination for his stature. Good gloves. Finds pucks in traffic / size advantage Battles | Jan. 25, 2023 | Feb. 7, 2023 |

P3
| A key contributor for Swiss vs Finland in Game #1 at WJC in Moncton Used in all situations Managed pucks very well. Outlets were crisp and accurate. Defending was sound. Some block shots on the PK. Has the ability to join the rush but played a mostly safe game / kept play in front of him in all three zones. | Dec. 26, 2022 | - |

T3
| Some new trends have started to evolve with his game At the U20 level he is the Captain of the team and being used in all situations Although not a proficient penalty killer he is showing he has the sense to get to space and interrupt plays before they materialize. Playing with SKA his minutes range from nearly non-existant to just under 8:00 avg TOI . There are no issues with his pace playing against men. He is used at ES and the PP. His offensive element continues to impress. Elite skill. | Nov. 13, 2022 | Nov. 21, 2022 |
| Garnet Hathaway | | RW | 30 | 1 of 2 | 64
M6
| Plays to his identity. Empties the tank every time he spills over the boards. Better than average offensive results based on avg TOI. Used ES and PK. A 'tweaner' ... Not a 4th line player but also not necessarily a true third line player. Hard to play against. Physical. Gets under the skin of opponents. Valuable. | Oct. 13, 2022 | Oct. 14, 2022 |
| Matvei Michkov | | RW | 17 | 1 of 4 | B+
T3
| A dynamic offensive player who is a threat at ES / PP / 3vs3 / 4vs4 / Shootout The kind of player who wants the puck on his stick in big moments and delivers results more often than not. His offensive zone instincts and awareness are skill attributes that speak to his hockey IQ. A solid skater. Quick to space. He can attack off the rush and beat defenders 1vs1 on his own. Not big but does display leverage along the wall and ability to extend plays in battles. Defensive zone detail will improve in time as he matures. Top line NHL upside. | Sep. 28, 2022 | Oct. 4, 2022 |
| Emil Andrae | | LD | 20 | 1 of 1 | B+
P3
| Transitional 'D' with a stocky build. He's not tall but does bring some weight and core strength A potential QB at the NHL level. A natural distributor who can get pucks to the net from range and through traffic accurately Defending has improved. He is now more reliable in all three zones. Closes on opponents quickly using his agility and anticipation to his advantage. Willing to battle for pucks along the wall and body up in front of his net. | Aug. 19, 2022 | Aug. 21, 2022 |
| Denver Barkey | | C | 17 | 1 of 3 | B+
M6
| Undersize forward who plays much bigger than his list size Involved. Creates turnovers when he doesn't have the puck. Tracks up and down the ice. Plays a full 200ft game. Quick to space on the penalty kill. Willing to get in lanes to block shots or create turnovers. Offense has time to develop. His work ethic and determination is impossible to ignore. The kind of player who can be deployed in all situations and trusted. | Jul. 31, 2022 | Aug. 7, 2022 |
| Rasmus Ristolainen | | RD | 27 | 1 of 3 | 61
P2
| AVG TOI (21:19) Being used in all situations. Big body who has been used 'net front' on the PP at times this year due to the struggles on the PP in Philly. Best deployed at ES and on the PK. Has a mean streak. Gaps up in the neutral zone. No easy ice in his lane. Battles around his net and along the wall. Moves the puck fine on his forehand. On his back hand he has a more difficult time executing. No issues with his pace. 2-way D. | Mar. 1, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |
| Marc Staal | | LD | 35 | 1 of 2 | 52
P3
| AVG TOI (16:45) in 21/22 season. 2-way 'D' being deployed at ES and on the PK. Veteran presence. Mostly low risk. He's aware. Plays the game the right way. Skating is avg. Small area quickness is area of weakness at this stage of his career. Relies on positioning and long reach. Will get into the lane and block shots occasionally. A #6 on a contending team. He is best suited to match up against middle 6 forwards but is trustworthy off D-zone draws. Makes simple plays with the puck. Identifies and outlets. | Mar. 1, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |
| Devin Kaplan | | RW | 18 | 1 of 1 | C+
L4
| A big body forward who moves well, plays with power, and doesn't cut corners. Used in secondary role on a deep USA U18 team. He has historically produced more offense than he did at the NTDP. His role did not lend itself to offense in Plymouth and could be misleading. There is a chance this player can produce more if given the chance moving forward. At worst he's a depth forward with size, physical presence, and compete. | Mar. 27, 2022 | Jul. 2, 2022 |
| Owen Tippett | | RW | 23 | 1 of 2 | 47
M6
| Has potential to create offense. Fantastic release. Shoots the puck hard and accurately. So far his career has been plagued with 'stops and starts'. In need of a 'reset' and solid off-season training. Needs to play consistently quicker and faster and provide more detail off the puck. Potential middle of the lineup winger who can be used on the first (PP) unit as a back door option / shooter. His element is offense. He will most likely always be average on the defensive side of the ledger. | Apr. 9, 2022 | Apr. 12, 2022 |
| Rasmus Ristolainen | | RD | 27 | 2 of 3 | 61
P2
| AVG TOI historically ranges from (21:40) - (25:00) depending on how he is being used. At (ES) he is a capable middle pairing option who is best played with a partner who is a more active puck mover. At his his best when he plays a focused / heavy / hard game and keeps his puck plays simple. A big body who has history of playing right on the edge at times. Movement / Agility is fine. His read/react is mostly sound but there are times he needs to close space/read the play quicker. Don't expect quick puck movement/execution on the (PP | Apr. 9, 2022 | Apr. 12, 2022 |
| Travis Konecny | | RW | 25 | 1 of 3 | 69
T6
| AVG TOI (17:30). Used primarily at (ES) and (PP). Spot duty on the (PK). His goal scoring has fallen off over the past two seasons. He was averaging (24) goals per season from (17-18) to (19-20) but has only scored (24) in his last 119 games. A competitive player who can play quick and fast. A threat off the rush. He does have a good release and ability to tip pucks in traffic. Not shy along the wall and around the crease. He battles. There have been nights of inconsistent play this season. Nights he lacked focus. | Apr. 9, 2022 | Apr. 12, 2022 |
| Travis Sanheim | | LD | 25 | 1 of 2 | 63
P2
| AVG TOI (22:36) Deployed at ES, PK, and 2nd PP unit. Big body. Has the legs to join the rush as an extra attacker. In the offensive zone opponents need to be aware of him. He's active. He will pinch down and find open space in the slot or extend plays. Defensively his length / long reach is an asset keeping the play to the outside. Not punishing On the PK he could be quicker with his read/react/jump to lanes Capable of more minutes on the PP. 2-way D with sneaky offensive element. | Mar. 13, 2022 | Mar. 17, 2022 |
| Nicolas Deslauriers | | LW | 31 | 1 of 2 | 42
L4
| Depth role player A heavy presence Adds a physical presence Drops the gloves when required Spot duty to keep opponents honest Occasionally he will chip in some offense | Mar. 6, 2022 | Mar. 10, 2022 |
| Ryan Poehling | | C | 23 | 1 of 2 | 43
M6
| Has proven he can produce offense at the AHL level but has not found consistent production at the NHL level Good size. Moves fine. Not a ton of bump or grind to his game. Better than average puck skill. Being used in a somewhat sheltered role 5vs5. Occasionally some PP duty in a clean up role. Somewhat undefined. Doesn't display a pure offensive element. Also doesn't provide the look of a 2-way match up center. | Feb. 21, 2022 | Feb. 22, 2022 |
| Noah Cates | | LW | 22 | 1 of 2 | D+
RL
| Plays a key role for Duluth at the college level Averages around 20:00 ice time Key contributor on the power play / equal parts shooter and playmaker Out of the blocks he is slightly above average quick In open ice he has a bit of a long / deep / stride that lacks separation and will need to improve His skating hurts him when tracking back after spending time in the offensive zone A battler who is willing to compete in the hard areas | Dec. 11, 2021 | Jan. 17, 2022 |
| Bobby Brink | | RW | 20 | 1 of 2 | 63
RL
| There is much to like about his game. Highly competitive player who is involved and brings element offensively. Quick release. He is capable as a shooter or distributor. Dangerous on the power play. Makes plays in small areas. He has the hockey IQ to be used in all situations His upside comes down to his skating. If he can keep up to the pro game he is going to have impact. An unusual stride that will likely always need attention and coaching to get up and then maintain at NHL speed. | Dec. 11, 2021 | Jan. 17, 2022 |

M6
| Being used regular shift and on the power play at Denver A transition threat who has the ability to gain the edge in zone entries and drive to the net Skilled He can beat opponents 1/1 Overall production is on the rise. He is scoring at the highest rate per game of his development to date. Speed. Skill. Compete are his elements. | Dec. 11, 2021 | Jan. 17, 2022 |

P3
| Reliable all round defender Logs a ton of ice time at the college level in all situations Sound positionally. Three zone awareness. Reliable hockey IQ. Brings size. Moves well. 2-way transitional No significant concerns about his game at this stage of his development. Trending up. | Dec. 3, 2021 | Jan. 12, 2022 |
| Bryce Brodzinski | | RW | 21 | 1 of 1 | D+
RL
| Year over year production is on the rise Heavy shot More of a shooter than a distributor Aggressive getting pucks to the net Does his best work from the hash marks down in the offensive zone Plays a heavy/lean power type game Skating needs to improve. Added quickness and open ice speed will give him a chance. | Nov. 26, 2021 | Dec. 15, 2021 |
