Instant Analysis: Flyers Select Tyson Foerster In First Round

It’s the moment we have all been waiting for. The Philadelphia Flyers select Tyson Foerster with the 23rd overall pick in the first round. After the 2020 Stanley Cup playoff performance where the Flyers powerplay was abysmal, Foerster is a welcomed addition to provide a spark on special teams.

Last season, Tyson Foerster spent time with the Barrie Colts in the OHL. It was the best season of his developing hockey career. Foerster tallied 80 total points, featuring 36 goals, and dished 44 assists. The Philadelphia Flyers’ first-round pick is a strong skater, possesses a cannon-like shot, and makes great plays from the forecheck with his hockey intelligence.
