There always is a player on a team who stands out among the rest. Whether that be a rookie goaltender taking his team to the Stanley cup final (Anti Niemi for the Blackhawks in 2010) or a Defenseman who shows big scoring capabilities (Shayne Gostisbehere with the Flyers). There has to be one this Flyer's roster-right?

The roster this season does not have a flashy name or a top tier player on it. That does not mean a breakout isn't necessary or even a must to stay within the team. That is exactly the case for these two players. One being a breakout year is probably the way they stay on the team and the other being a breakout season is something that will show the management "Hey we might have something here". Here are those two players in my eyes.
Breakout Season a Must-Travis Konecny
It's the story of false hope so far with Flyers forward Travis Konecny. In his early years with the Flyers, you saw a 20+ goal scorer, 61 points in 66 games in 2019 and then a huge drop off in the playoffs- 7 points in 14 games (0g,7A).
A player with huge upside to score goals and produce points totally evaporate and it's been a huge concern. When will Travis Konecny show up? I know deep down there is a good player who can score 20 or more goals and become a leader on this roster. A breakout year is due for him, or he may be finding himself on the trading block, which I have said for a few seasons now.

Breakout Star in 2022-2023 Season-Cam York
This will be his first full season with the big club, and I couldn't be more excited for what the future holds for this young defenseman. Cam York. York had the opportunity to play 30 games with the Flyers last season having 10 points. A full season with the Flyers this season, Cam could be on pace for double digit goals and his playmaking ability will only improve. A star in the making and a #1 defenseman to be come.
