Rotowire
Konecny notched three assists in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
Konecny continues to pile on the points in December -- he has three goals and seven helpers over nine outings this month. He was a big part of the Flyers' four-goal third period, allowing them to erase three deficits before completing the comeback in overtime. Konecny is up to the 40-point mark in just 34 appearances, earning 16 goals, 24 helpers, 87 shots on net, 46 hits, 35 PIM and a minus-2 rating. He's maintained a point-per-game pace in just one of his first eight seasons, but he could fade a little bit and still end up with a career year.

Rotowire
Konecny scored a goal and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Red Wings.

He's also a little bit of everything, with 82 shots and 43 hits. Konecny is a valuable fantasy play, although he has an inflated 18.5 shooting percentage, which is higher than his career average (12.9). Everything that goes up eventually comes down.

Rotowire
Konecny scored twice in a 5-3 win over Columbus on Tuesday.
Konecny is riding a three-game, four-point streak (two goals, two assists), and his 15 goals this season put him in the league's top-10 snipers. In fact, he's been absolutely on fire since Nov. 5 -- he has been held off the scoresheet just twice in 18 games (24 points; 50 shots). Konecny has stepped into the role of a top-line winger with gusto, and he'll help carry the Flyers and your fantasy squad including those in head-to-head formats.

Flyers' Travis Konecny: Garners assist in loss
Rotowire
Konecny notched an assist in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Utah.
Konecny saw a team-high 23:54 of ice time Sunday, so it appears his benching from Saturday's game against the Bruins won't have any carryover effects. The winger has two goals and seven helpers over his last eight games, missing the scoresheet in just one of them. The 27-year-old continues to thrive in a top-line role with 32 points, 78 shots on net, 42 hits, 33 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 28 contests.

Flyers' Travis Konecny: Manages helper Saturday
Rotowire
Konecny posted an assist, five shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Konecny ended up in head coach John Tortorella's doghouse after a third-period minor penalty for interference. The 27-year-old forward briefly left the game at the behest of the concussion spotter, but when he returned to the bench, that's where he stayed. Konecny is one of the Flyers' best forwards with 31 points, 77 shots on net, 41 hits and 33 PIM over 27 contests, but Tortorella loathes bad penalties. As such, Konecny will need to put his best foot forward Sunday versus Utah to get back on the bench boss's good side.

Konecny has an NHL-best six shorthanded goals this season. It's the highest total in an NHL season since Michael Grabner did it in 2018-19.
