The departure of this Flyers forward is inevitable

There are three games remaining for the Flyers this season.

The last week of this horrible 2021-22 campaign begins with a matchup against the Chicago Blackhawks, tonight.

It will be after the season that things will get interesting. What will Chuck Fletcher do? We already know what his plan is. But how will he apply it?

The deepest position in the Flyers' lineup is the right wing, as six players will battle for four spots: Cam Atkinson, Travis Konecny, Owen Tippett, Wade Allison, Bobby Brink and Zack MacEwen.


Atkinson will not leave. Same for Brink, Tippett and Allison - reports also indicated that the Flyers wanted to keep MacEwen. Do you understand where I'm heading? There are only four spots at the right wing position and that will force Fletcher to move one of them this season, and the most susceptible to be moved is Travis Konecny. Rumours indicated that the Flyers' GM nearly traded him last summer.

His value is still high and when you want to retool aggressively, he is the perfect candidate for a trade.
