Does it count that he was only half a player?    Now I think I *might*  know the answer.  If it's the case, call me stunned.   It's likely it's not, so I'll be stunned by the answer either way.    Cool game.

Just a thought - 

 

If defenceman Cam York or RW Bobby Brink decide to leave college after this season, they could see some NHL or AHL action the rest of the way. The US college hockey season likely will end near the end of March. 

 

In every other season when a player leaves at the end of the season, there are only a few games left in the NHL season so players get a cup of coffee at best. But this season is different as the schedule does not end the first week of April, but rather on May 8. 

 

That means some players could get in 20-25 games at the NHL level or AHL level once they decide to leave college hockey. 

 

York turns 20 years old on Tuesday (Jan 5).  He has been in the Team USA program for 3 seasons and at Michigan for one season. Brink is 19 years old, has played for Team USA for 2 seasons and Denver for one.

 

Our Flyers are deep in prospects at the AHL level and College and European Leagues level. Even if there are extensive Flyers injuries and COVID related absences on the roster and Taxi Squad, York and Brink would be somewhat down on the depth chart. Example: Zamula and Wylie would be ahead of York, and with forwards, Cates (college) would be ahead of Brink.

 

This assumes Twarynski, Laczynski, and Allison are on the 6-player Taxi Squad and Sandin is on the 23-player Flyers roster.

 

It all depends on the Flyers absences throughout January, February and March. Since our AHL Phantoms players, have had an extra long time off, perhaps York and Brink, who have been playing regularly, may be considered. It would be a co-decision by Flyers GM Fletcher and York/Brink and dependent on circumstances.

Good guess.

 

But, incorrect.

 

Only one guess per member.

 

Finally, after 5 weeks of this 'every Saturday Flyers Mystery Photo Contest', there is a complete strike-out - - - unless the absent Podein25 returns from the Manitoba wilderness and nails it.

 

Not likely.

Flyers agree to terms with Zack Stortini
 
by Staff Writer / Philadelphia Flyers
 July 2, 2014
 
The Philadelphia Flyers have agreed to terms with 6-4, 232-lb forward Zack Stortini to a one-year, two-way contract, according to general manager Ron Hextall.
 
Stortini, 28 (9/11/1985), spent the 2013-14 season in the Anaheim Ducks organization playing for the team’s American Hockey League affiliate, the Norfolk Admirals, where he posted nine points (4g-5a) to go along with a league-leading 299 penalty minutes.
 
He has spent parts of the last four seasons in the AHL with Oklahoma City (2010-11), Milwaukee (2011-12), Hamilton (2012-13) and Norfolk (2013-14), while also appearing in regular season games for the Nashville Predators (2011-12) and Edmonton Oilers (2006-2011).
 
Stortini has accumulated 14 goals and 27 assists for 41 points and 725 penalty minutes in 257 NHL games in his career with the Oilers and Predators.
 
He was a member of the Calder Cup Champion Hamilton Bulldogs in 2007 where he posted 15 points (9g-6a) in 47 regular season games and three goals in 22 Calder Cup Playoff games on the way to the title.
 
He was originally drafted by Edmonton in the third round (94th overall) of the 2003 NHL Entry Draft.

 I will give it to you that you stumped us but technically Stortini never played a regular season game with the Flyers during the 2014-15 season.  He played the entire season with the then Phila. Phantoms.  Then on July 1, 2015, Stortini signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Ottawa Senators. With the intention of adding a veteran presence to AHL affiliate, the Binghamton Senators, Stortini was announced as team captain to begin the 2015–16 season.

 

So yeah you stumped us, but he never had one minute of ice time with the Flyers during the regular season.  He might have played a few games in pre-season, but generally I would never consider him as a tough guy for the Flyers ..... especially considering he was a career AHL journeyman.  Good question but it is a stretch .....IMO.
