Flyers Defenseman Ryan Ellis Could Miss Start of Season
Per Coach John Tortorella, Flyers defenseman Ryan Ellis may not start the season. The defenseman played in only four games last season, none after Nov. 13, because of what the 31-year-old called a "multilayered" issue involving the "complex of the whole pelvic region."
"If you're asking me right now, I doubt it," coach John Tortorella said Monday when asked if Ellis would be ready to play.
The Flyers open the season against the New Jersey Devils on Oct. 13, but Tortorella added that he didn't think Ellis would be healthy when they open training camp on Sept. 21.
