Valtteri Filppula
For the next few weeks, we’ll take a look back on several playoff series in Flyers history, both won and lost by the Flyers, and review them to see some of the turning points within the series and how the result could have been different. We begin with the Flyers last playoff series back in 2018 against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The Flyers get a chance to rebound against the New York Islanders, a team still trying to find an identity after losing their captain via free agency in the offseason. Game time is at 1 p.m.
The opponent remains the same on Monday night, but the Flyers come back to home ice for the first time. Game time is set for 7 p.m.
With the 2018-19 NHL season approaching, Mikhail Vorobyev may be able to earn his spot on the roster as the Flyers third-line center after playing a solid defensive role with the Phantoms.
Since being acquired from the Tampa Bay Lightning, Valtteri Filppula has emerged as one of the top players for the Philadelphia Flyers.
Since the subtraction of Pierre-Eduard Bellemare to the Vegas Golden Knights in the Expansion Draft, who will replace him as the next alternate captain for the Philadelphia Flyers?
