The Flyers remain a playoff bubble team and will continue to be for a few more years...at least until their top prospects graduate. With Provorov, Konecny, Sanheim, Rubstov, Stolarz, Lindblom, Morin and half a dozen more kids coming the future is bright...however this truly is a year of development. Its going to be interesting to see who Hextall considers the future of this team, especially in net. I expect Courturier, Laughton and Cousins to all take steps and the bottom six of this team to solidify itself and aging contracts like Streit and Schultz to be shipped out at the deadline.
