Losing TK was devastating for this Flyers offence. He was the more consistent scorer and point-getter for everyone and gave other Flyers players, especially the younger players someone to look up to and work with.
TK remains out of the lineup with an upper-body injury since February 21st but continues to skate and rehab from his injury and hopes to make a return to the lineup before the end of the season.
Before his injury, he played 52 games with 27 goals and 27 assists for 54 points. He had 14 power-play points and 69 penalty minutes.
He is expected to return for next season in full health and be a mainstay once again on this offence.
