Ryan Gilbert of Philadelphia Hockey NOW: The Philadelphia Flyers’ quest to find a replacement for Matt Niskanen continues. Chuck Fletcher focuses his energy on trying to acquire Seth Jones. At least, those are the rumors anyway.
It is rumored that Philadelphia “is definitely working at it”.
What does that mean exactly? Simply, the Flyers are feeling the pinch of wanting to get this done as soon as possible. Consider that the expansion draft is just a few weeks away. This will come up fast.
Many in the Flyers’ organization feel that they could bounce back quickly from last season’s trainwreck.
