Jason Myrtetus recaps the Flyers 2-0 preseason win on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center. He is also joined by Owen Tippett and Samuel Ersson for postgame interview.
Quick question - I hear a lot of concern over players not being waiver exempt and the fear of teams losing them. Aside from salary (which is often a consideration when claiming a player put on waivers), isn't it true that a player claimed MUST stay on the teams NHL roster? If so, I would think that would be just as important a consideration - you wouldn't want to claim a marginal player who then takes a roster spot....
Early bird catching the action - Michkov seems to be the real deal. Happy to see Ersson get the goose egg.
Very informative and interesting episode, Jason!

Cut cal
There's no point in doing that and having that dead money against the cap.
He's gone after this year.
I think Ersson got hurt at the end of the game
