The Philadelphia Flyers faced off against the New York Islanders in their fifth preseason game of the year, yet again it was another Flyers loss. The Flyers have put up 5 goals in 5 preseason games so far, which is quite underwhelming. One thing that has been exciting to see despite the Flyers struggles are the Flyers young defensemen getting plenty of ice-time throughout the preseason matchup. As John Tortorella said in his latest interview ''We are going to play the kids''.
Well, sadly one of the kids got caught up in a scary situation. Egor Zamula, who stands at 6 foot 4 was sadly in the wrong place at the wrong time, when a New York Islanders player wounded up for a slapshot that went directly at Zamula's face.
