The Philadelphia Flyers appear to be putting their two most-skilled players together on a line, at least here in training camp.
Matvei Michkov has found a new best friend and potential linemate in Trevor Zegras, who appears to be enjoying his time with the Flyers thus far. But if Michkov and Zegras are going to be on a line together, that is a lot of offense without a ton of defensive acumen. And the Flyers seem set on Zegras sticking at center for now, so it’s not as easy as putting them on the wings of someone like Sean Couturier to hold down the fort in the middle.
