How Many Flyers Players Will Score 20 Goals This Upcoming Season? by Benjamin Gabrych
This week’s serving of Broad Street Buzz content you might have missed.
The week kicked off with Philadelphia Flyers forward and centerman Sean Couturier getting snubbed from NHL Network’s Top-20 Centers list, because reasons? Who knows at this point.
The Flyers are set to have 20 of their 82 games broadcasted on either NBC or NBCSN, which is three more than last season and also led all NHL teams in that category.
