VOORHEES, N.J. -- Philadelphia Flyers general manager Ron Hextall understands he might have a bit of a math problem with his defense when training camp opens Sept. 17.
The Flyers have eight defensemen on NHL contracts, and five prospects who will be fighting for roster spots.
That doesn't include any players the Flyers might bring into camp on professional tryout contracts.
