This was Drysdale's first multi-point effort of the campaign, and all three of his points so far have come with the man advantage.

Drysdale scored a power-play goal and went minus-3 in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Kraken. The third-period goal was Drysdale's first point in four games this season. He's added eight blocked shots and a minus-6 rating. He's playing on the third pairing at even strength, though he saw a season-high 20:15 of ice time Thursday. He's also been a factor with the man advantage. Things often change quickly in the Flyers' lineup, and given where Drysdale's at now, he has nowhere to go but up, especially if he can build off his goal.

The 22-year-old will fill a top-four role and quarterback one of the Flyers' power-play units in 2024-25. Drysdale's career-high in points came in 2021-22 with Anaheim -- he logged 32 points in 81 regular-season outings during that campaign.

Drysdale is expected to be ready to play by the start of the 2024-24 season, but given the severity of the injury, fantasy managers will want to track his status through training camp.
