NHL teams have less than one week to make their final roster decisions before the regular season begins. Players have been presenting their cases to the general manager and coaching staff, expressing their desire to remain with the parent team or return to their respective AHL clubs.

The Flyers made a significant decision yesterday when they placed Wade Allison on waivers. Allison was initially expected to play a crucial role for the Flyers, but due to a high number of injuries and lack of production last year and this year, it appears that General Manager Danny Briere has seen enough and has sent him on his way.
The Flyers now face one more roster cut, with several players in contention, including Felix Sandstrom, Bobby Brink, and Tyson Foerster. It would be unfortunate to lose Sandstrom for nothing in the event of an injury, so protecting the team's depth by keeping him exempt through waivers seems like a prudent choice.
The final decision will come soon, as the Flyers are set to begin their season on the road against the Columbus Blue Jackets. This game will hold extra significance as it marks the first time Ivan Provorov faces his former teammates.
