• Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Grabs helper in loss

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Foerster logged an assist, two hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers. Foerster went from being a healthy scratch Tuesday to a top-line role at even strength Wednesday, though he saw just 13:51 of ice time. The 22-year-old has gotten off to a slow start with two points through six contests this season. He's added 10 shots on net, 19 PIM, five hits and a minus-3 rating, and he'll likely bounce around the lineup some more as head coach John Tortorella struggles to find line combinations that lead to positive results for the 1-5-1 Flyers.

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Foerster scored a power-play goal on four shots in Friday's 3-2 shootout win over the Canucks. Foerster had the Flyers' first goal of the season, tallying at 17:24 of the first period to tie the game at 1-1. The winger was decent as a rookie in 2023-24 with 20 goals, 13 assists, 167 shots on net and 101 hits over 77 appearances. He's beginning this season in a top-six role, and while head coach John Tortorella often shuffles his lines, Foerster should still be a key player throughout the campaign.

  02/23/2024 • By RotoWire

  Foerster (lower body) is practicing in a regular jersey Friday, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports. Foerster has missed the last four games after he was injured blocking a shot versus Seattle on Feb. 10. The 22-year-old has 10 goals and 21 points in 52 games this season. He will likely play on the third line alongside Ryan Poehling and Noah Cates upon his return to the lineup. The Flyers sent Olle Lycksell to the minors Friday, suggesting Foerster will likely be able to return Saturday versus the Rangers.
