What Nolan Patrick accepting his qualifying offer means for the Flyers

It’s always good to kickstart the weekend with some good news and the Flyers delivered exactly that this evening. Nolan Patrick has signed his qualifying offer, meaning he’ll spend at least one more year in Philadelphia.

The 22-year-old is still technically on injured reserve, meaning that his new cap hit of $847,125 won’t take hold until he returns to action. That might be sooner than we think. Patrick has taken part in at least two scrimmages within the last month, clearly pushing to get back on the Ice as soon as possible.

This is a really encouraging sign.
