It’s happened! The Flyers have announced their roster for opening night, and it’s got a couple of surprises. Let’s see the roster first:
Forwards
James van Riemsdyk
Defensemen
Goalies
And for those keeping count, that is 11 forwards and seven defensemen. Presumably Tyler Pitlick will be back soon, but with he and Nolan Patrick occupying IR space and still counting against the cap, this is what they had to do in order to be compliant. Assuming he’s back for opening night, this will at least give them a “complete” roster.
