The NHL trade deadline (Monday, February 24) is rapidly approaching and the playoffs are set to commence in early April. As two of the most critical time periods on the 2019-20 NHL calendar draw near, how will things shake out in the next few months for the Philadelphia Flyers? The Flyers’ American Hockey League affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, may prove to be a critical piece in determining what the future holds.

In 53 games played, the Phantoms have a record of 22-24-1-6 (51 points). They currently sit in the seventh spot of the AHL’s Atlantic Division, 19 points behind the first place Hershey Bears (32-16-3-3).
