  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Drysdale is fully healthy after undergoing sports hernia surgery during the offseason, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports Tuesday. Drysdale will now have a full season with Philadelphia after being traded from Anaheim during the 2023-24 season. Between both clubs, Drysdale registered 10 points and a minus-20 rating in 34 regular-season contests. 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.

• Flyers' Jamie Drysdale: Suiting up Monday

  04/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Drysdale (upper body) will be in the lineup against the Islanders on Monday. Drysdale has been out of action since Feb. 25 versus the Penguins, a stretch of 16 games on the shelf due to his upper-body injury. With just one point in his 11 games prior to getting hurt, the blueliner probably shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value moving forward. With Drysdale back in action, Adam Ginning figures to be relegated to the press box or even sent back to AHL Lehigh Valley.
