Sean Couturier might just need some more time

Philadelphia Flyers captain Sean Couturier was a healthy scratch in his last two games, but his recent play that led to said scratchings does not speak to the player he has been this season and what he can be in the future. At 31 years of age, he is still a solid player.

Couturier missed half of his 2021-22 campaign and his entire 2022-23 season after suffering multiple injuries and undergoing back surgery. It’s almost a miracle that he has played this season, if anything.

The Flyers captain is in his second season of a contract that carries a $7.
