Flyers Perform Well Early in Season, Morgan Frost Benched for Fourth Straight Game
Frost benched due to lackluster performance and lack of suitable role, impressive performances by Sanheim, Hart and Couturier aid Flyers' promising start to the season.
- The Philadelphia Flyers have shown a promising start to the season with an impressive 3-1-1 record. Particular standouts include Travis Sanheim, Carter Hart, and Sean Couturier.
- Travis Sanheim has demonstrated an improved performance this season, with the single hardest shot among NHL players and an increased playtime, despite not scoring any goals so far.
- Goalie Carter Hart has had a solid start with a 3-1-0 mark, 2.01 goals-against average, and .929 save percentage, while forward Sean Couturier, in his first action in nearly two years, has exhibited proficient defense and scoring ability.
- Morgan Frost will be benched for the fourth straight match, as Coach John Tortorella looks for an appropriate offensive role to reintegrate him into the lineup following a couple of unsatisfactory games at the start of the season.
- The Flyers are gearing up for their biggest challenge yet against the Golden Knights, who are off to an impressive 6-0 start, marking the best start ever for a defending Stanley Cup champion.
