jammer2 Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 The Flyers released their roster for the annual prospects development camp, which starts on Thursday, July 7th. There is one glaring omission, no listing of Philippe Myers from the Quebec League. I'm assuming he is injured, anyone have conformation, I googled it and didn't find anything. http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/flyers/20160706_Young_Flyers_to_gather_at_development_camp.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it was the old or new one. But yeah he have surgery and will be out but he should be ready for the start of his team's junior season with no issues.

pilldoc Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 @OccamsRazor @jammer2 The other noticeable omission is Rubtsov which also has been mentioned before in regard to getting him out of his KHL contract and probably VISA issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilldoc Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 @AJgoal Very nice read. thanks for sharing. I'm really excited to hear how some of these guys have progressed. Sanheim now a tad over 200 lbs....that is great. The added muscle will only help him improve even further. Provorov..well what else is there to say.... I am beginning to feel more and more that he will make the Flyers squad this year. There is nothing else for him to prove in juniors. I feel the same way about Konecny. Allison, I believe, will surprise a lot of fans. A really nice pick by Hexy. Laberge, as has been mentioned, some scouts had him listed as 1st round talent. Nice to see him in O&B also. Any word on Lyons...read he was injured but I have yet to see any details. Again thanks for the update! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 So that is good news that Travis Konecny is up to 183 pounds at 5-10 i can't seeing him weighing much more and maintaining his speed maybe up to 190 tops in a year or two. But 183 is big enough to play in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they are concentrating more on the teaching aspect than scrimmage, but hopefully they do have a few mock games and we can get some reports. Hard to report on drills etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He realistically wasn't going to sniff being with the Flyers for at least 2 years anyway. Oh well.... like @OccamsRazor said..will give him time to turn into a Pavel Malkin clone.

AJgoal Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Stopped in this afternoon for a bit. Started out watching some goalie drills. Lyon seemed pretty quick. Seemed to track the puck well. A couple of times he seemed to over commit side to side and kicked the puck out in front of an open net. Madsen is really big. Good puck tracking, but had some trouble with deflections. Also had one stick save where he directed the puck over his shoulder and into the net. Sandstrom was just all around solid. Good side-to-side control. Had a couple good stops on Konecny that I saw in the Group 1 drills. Watching group 1, it was hard not to get mesmerized by Provorov's skating. Very compact stride and excellent body control. That said, Hagg's skating didn't seem too far behind. Provorov also had several good shots in drills. Konecny is fast, good hard shot. He and Fazleev seemed to have a bit of a rapport going. Bernhardt is a big, lanky kid. Skating wasn't as smooth as Hagg or Provorov, but he was able to keep Konecny outside pretty well in a one-on-one. Hogberg is really slight, he's listed as 6'1 but he seems smaller. He struggled some in one on ones, Goulborne went around him pretty easily at one point. Vala is interesting, think he's an invite. Really big kid, biggest in group 1. Skates well, though I don't think as well as Morin. Got beat outside, but used his reach well to deny the forward. Decent shot. I only watched a bit of group 2. Morin was out on the ice, which is good since he had strep the past couple of days on top of the abdominal/hip surgery he had this summer. Allison moved pretty well for a bigger guy, and has a pretty good wrister. I don't know if Tomek was having a bad day or what. I'm probably exaggerating, but it seemed like guys scored on him 50% of the time. Hart looked very good in goal. Moved well and stopped just about everything. Freidman has a really nice release, and seemed bigger than the 5'10 they list him at. It's really hard to judge these kids based on drills, but there's certainly a lot of skill there. I saw both Hakstol and Hextall on the balcony watching group 1. I think Pryor was up there watching both groups at various times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 @AJgoal Thanks for the scourging report. Did you get a chance to see Laberge? Who, in your opinion surprised you the most? Glad to hear Morin was back on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
