Helge Grans, a Swedish defenseman, was acquired by the Philadelphia Flyers from the Los Angeles Kings in a three-team trade on June 6.

Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 205 pounds, Grans played in the American Hockey League (AHL) for the Ontario Reign during the 2021-22 and 2022-23 seasons. In his rookie year, he showed promise, averaging over 15 minutes of ice time and posting 24 points in 56 games.
However, his second season was a disappointment, with reduced production and deployment changes under a new head coach.

Despite some defensive issues, Grans has the potential to become a regular NHL starter but will require further development and patience. He shares a history with fellow teammate Emil Andrae from their time on Swedish national junior teams.
