The Flyers had a disappointing first round playoff exit at the hands of the New York Rangers, and they are ready to re-load for next season.
Philadelphia has a solid group of prospects on the blue line, which they might be tapping into very soon with the aging Kimmo Timonen and Mark Streit‘s career winding down.
That being said, although the need is not imminent, they will require scoring ability on the wings to complement their very good group up the middle.
The Flyers would benefit from the talent of Robby Fabbri from the Guelph Storm of the OHL. His offensive output exploded from 10 goals and 33 points in 2012-13 to 45 goals and 87 points this year. He added 6 points in 4 games as the Storm made it to the final of the Memorial Cup.
He is not big, but the Flyers have plenty of size so this would be a nice fit for him.
