So far this season, the Philadelphia Flyers have scored 31 goals in 12 games, good for 2.58 goals per game and 26th in the league. The offense has been extremely difficult to come by, and it’s not like the Flyers are merely snake-bitten. Simply, they aren’t generating enough offensive pressure and shots to be considered snake-bitten, and in the early goings a ton of the blame has been placed upon sophomore-season Matvei Michkov.
One guy that’s flown pretty under the radar for his middling performances through 12 games? Top-line winger Travis Konecny, who’s in the first season of an eight-year contract extension with $8.
