Keeping Us Busy: Checking in on Flyers’ Youngsters
By now most Flyers fans have exhausted most of our orange and black content from the past.
From Flyers documentaries to the comeback against Boston in 2010, Lindros highlights, Giroux’s silky shootouts, and the hilarity of locker room Hartnell, I’m running out of stuff to watch.
Instead of watching players of the past, why not watch players of the future.
Most of the time we are watching NHL highlights, but if you have any favorite players, it’s always fun to go back and watch them play before they were drafted to see their talent at a young age.
Here’s a couple for instance that either haven’t made the team yet or have only been around a year.
Cam York
Our first-round draft pick from last year is a shifty offensive defenseman with great passing ability. He just finished up his first year at Michigan where he led the blue line in points.
You can catch his highlight videos of his first year in college, as well as many videos of him playing for USA team, and the USNDP before he was drafted. It’s fun to look at his vision at an early age and gives hope of having a great puck mover for the Flyers here in a couple years.
Wade Allison
Recently signed to his entry-level contract, Alison has played the last couple of years at Western Michigan. He’s always hungry for the puck and knows his way around the front of the net.
You can catch some of his highlights from the last couple of seasons playing for the Broncos.
Carter Hart
Not a prospect anymore, but still a great watch is Carter Hart absolutely owning the crease while playing for the Everett Silvertips.
His last year playing for them, he recorded an astounding .947% save percentage which broke CHL records
Morgan Frost
Frost played 20 games for the Flyers this season and 41 games for the Phantoms, but before that he played for the Soo Greyhounds where he racked up over 100 points in his last two seasons in juniors.
There are a ton of videos on him where you can see his creativity and playmaking ability.
Keep jumping down those hockey wormholes, there’s always more stuff to watch and you may just learn something new about your favorite players.
You may even find old players you didn’t know much about.
Now is the time to buff up your hockey knowledge of the past!
