One of the biggest reasons for the Flyers’ hot start to the 2019-20 season has been the play of the Sean Couturier line. He, along with Oskar Lindblom and Travis Konecny, have been one of the better lines in hockey as we approach the quarter-way mark of the season. Lindblom and Konecny are having breakout seasons, and Couturier is continuing to be one of the most underrated centers in the league.
It was at first a questionable move on head coach Alain Vigneault’s part to put the line together, given the success Couturier has had with Claude Giroux.
