Matthew Phillips is (reportedly) in.
The 5’7″, 155-pound winger, who tied for the Stockton Heat lead with 21 points in 30 games this season, will make his NHL debut on Wednesday afternoon against the Vancouver Canucks.
Phillips’ representatives at the Roy Hockey Group first reported the news in a Tweet on Wednesday morning. Sportsnet 960 contributor Peter Loubardias later corroborated the same information.
Congrats and good luck to @mattphillips_8 as he makes his @NHL debut this afternoon for the @NHLFlames! #CofRed pic.
