In a surprising move, the Philadelphia Flyers have once again benched Morgan Frost for today's 1 PM Eastern puck drop against the New York Rangers. This decision marks the 10th time in 20 games that Frost has found himself scratched from the lineup.

The lineup for today's game, according to John Tortorella, features Carter Hart starting in goal, maintaining the same lines as the last game. Egor Zamula gets the nod on defense, while Louie Belpedio is scratched.
Several reporters have expressed their discontent with the continued benching of Morgan Frost. John Tortorella's decision has raised eyebrows among the media, with some questioning the rationale behind keeping Frost on the sidelines for extended periods.
One reporter voiced concerns about devaluing Frost as an asset, emphasizing the need to find ways to maximize the young player's potential. Another commentator, who had maintained a neutral stance on Frost throughout the season, found it bewildering that he was once again benched, stating:

Still don't understand Frost remaining a scratch for such long periods of time. I get the team is playing well, but you have to work him in at some point.

All they are doing keeping him scratched is devaluing an asset. Have to find a way to maximize the asset.
"Honestly, it doesn't make sense."
The perplexing decision to sit Morgan Frost for half of the team's 20 games has left many reporters and fans alike scratching their heads.
This Morgan Frost stuff should end. Either move on from the player, or play him.

That's what should happen. It's become increasingly clear Torts does not favor him.
As the Flyers take on the New York Rangers, the handling of Morgan Frost's playing time remains a topic of discussion and debate within the hockey community.
