Nicolas Aube-Kubel Could Force Difficult Decision For The Flyers
The Philadelphia Flyers forward has played well for the team this season and could force a tough decision for the front office soon.
After going without a point in his brief, nine-game stint in the NHL last season, Nicolas Aube-Kubel continued to refine his game in the AHL, netting 30 points in 54 games in 2018-19 and eight in 30 contests this year with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. I thought the now 23-year-old winger didn’t get a fair shot on the squad his first time around, averaging just over five minutes of Time on Ice under former Head Coach Dave Hakstol, which isn’t nearly enough time for a young player to prove his worth in any league.
