Nolan Patrick healthy as Flyers start rookie camp; training with Jonathan Toews helped prepare him

Sigh, Flyers fans.

After a second straight summer rehabbing from abdominal surgery, center Nolan Patrick, the second overall pick in the June draft, said he felt 100 percent healthy when he made his Flyers debut at rookie camp Monday in Voorhees, N.J.

Patrick, who turns 19 on Sept. 19, said he started to feel totally healthy about three weeks ago.

“That’s kind of when all the pain was gone,” he said. “I was feeling good on the ice and got my conditioning back….I hadn’t been 100 percent in a while.”

“I thought he had a good day,” Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said.
