It’s no mystery, we talk about it enough around here, that the Flyers have one of the deepest prospect pools in hockey. And while much attention is being given to the Phantoms this season, with how loaded they are with prospect talent, there are still ample exciting prospects playing outside of the AHL this season who deserve a bit of love too. Like, as you may have already guessed, Ronnie Attard.
Attard quickly went from a low risk but intriguing, overage, pick in the third round of the 2019 draft to one of the best defensemen in the NCAA, earning NCHC Conference honors as the best offensive defenseman, and being named to the first All-American team, while also being named to the NCAA (West) first All-American team last season.
