Sean Couturier
According to a report from the Montreal Journal, Flyers forward Sean Couturier re-injured his MCL in an offseason game while making a routine movement.
Shayne Gostisbehere was ranked as one of NHL Network’s Top 20 Defensemen right now, while Ivan Provorov was considered one of five defensemen on the bubble, sparking a bit of a debate showing how much Flyers fans value the 2015 first-round pick.
Whatever the top line and second line look like on Opening Night, the Flyers not only have a solid top six, they have flexibility in how they utilize it.
The smart decision in the 2018-19 season is to keep Claude Giroux and Sean Couturier together with Giroux still manning the wing, where he had so much success in the 2017-18 season.
After the career year Couturier had in 2017-18 season, putting up new career highs in points, solidifying himself as the first-line center, and continuing to be a shutdown force, not to mention being a finalist for the Selke Trophy, could we see the same from him in the 2018-19 season and for the rest of his career?
The new top line for the Philadelphia consisting of Claude Giroux, Sean Couturier and Jake Voracek look to be an offensive threat for the Flyers this season.
The Philadelphia Flyers face the end of another disappointing season. It’s become a regular notion with the team’s current core of players. Now they must be held accountable.
