Welcome to the Sunday Number, a weekly feature that will take a look at a Flyers-related number or statistic that matters, one way or another. You may recognize the concept from similar features on other sites, but that’s okay. As the famous poet and clear influence on this blog T.S. Eliot once said, “good writers borrow, great writers steal.”
Let’s just get to the number.
That’s the percentage of regular season games that newly drafted center Nolan Patrick has missed in his junior hockey league career. Patrick’s injury history has been widely documented, and it’s the main reason why he was available for the Flyers to select him with the 2nd overall pick.
