Ivan Provorov jumped into the NHL in 2016-17 by playing in all 82 games that season. He hasn’t looked back, not missing a single game during his first four seasons.
He has been just about everything the Flyers could’ve asked him to be. There was concern that Provorov had regressed last season. He struggled mightily. He finished with his lowest point total and didn’t seem like the same player he was before. Mistakes were creeping into his game that hadn’t been there before.
The Flyers weren’t nervous though, inking him to a long term deal right before this year’s training camp began.
