Sounds like we had some interesting lines in practice today.

Giroux-Coots-Konecny
JvR-Patrick-Voracek
Lindblom-Vorobyev-Simmonds
Laughton-Knight-Raffl

That looks like a potential opening night lineup. Knight in, Weal out, would be surprising to me. If that holds, they must think Vorobyev has a higher offensive potential than Weal.

Coots also left practice early with McCrossin which is not a great sign. Regular season needs to hurry the hell up before all our players are hurt. Ghost left early last night too, though it looks like he practiced today.
Lindblom has looked good so far if they can find a decent third line center that line may be very good this year. I think that the forth line is already pretty good no matter who centers it...

Yeah, not a fan of this. It's actually kind of ghey imo. The Flyers don't need a friggin mascot and why now?

Seriously, Elmo sporting a Flyers jersey. Just stupid!

Why now and why in general? It looks just like Justin Turner of the Dodgers.

Looks to me like that's most of the opening night roster. I would say Corban Knight has the inside track at 4C at this point. Vorobyev has the inside track to 3C.

Just missing the 3rd line wingers (Lindblom/Simmonds) and Couturier up front. Since Couturier is hurt, give Vorobyev an opportunity with the top line and rest the wingers for his line. Then give the '5th line' a final audition. 5th line being Aube-Kuble-Lehtera-Weise. Weal not playing is pretty glaring to me.

At least, that's the tea leaves I'm reading. Defense is still a little jumbly with AMac coming back from injury and Sanheim hurt. Tough to get a read on that side.

Mascot is pretty lame. But most mascots are. Hopefully the kids enjoy him.

Quite frankly if I'm a parent I'm keeping my kids away from him

He looks like a bearded old wino *********
I wouldn't be surprised if "Gritty" had a creepy raincoat in his closet
