Faulk scored two goals and six points through 12 with the Charlotte Checkers making himself appear NHL ready.
Could be a setback or a scheduled doctor's appointment. Perron last played November 4th, 2010 against the San Jose Sharks.
van Riemsdyk surprised the team by becoming available for tonight's game. The power forward has five goals and nine points in 12 games.
Keep him on the bench until you hear otherwise
Sounds like Perron received some good news and may return over the next month. Considering Sidney Crosby has been practicing since before preseason, it seems quite ambitious to be on such a truncated timeframe.
With the injury to Brayden Schenn, van Riemsdyk moves back up to the second line.
Faulk will be an NHL player but does nobody good by sitting on the bench. Safe to drop for now...
Perron will need some time to regain his timing after missing a full year.
Through three games, Faulk has no points, a minus-5 rating and 10 PIM.
Surrounding a four-game point streak, JVR is without a point. He has also registered at least a minus-1 in each of his last four games,
Perron continues his road to recovery but is still a ways away from returning. The next step would be slowly introducing him to contact. However, practicing with the team for two consecutive days remains a welcome sign.
Despite getting held without a point, JVR finished with seven shots on goal. His demotion to the third line is likely more indicative of getting all of the three lines going.
Perron skated with his teammates, not by himself, which is a very welcome sign for him. The next step would be slowly introducing him to contact. Considering he only skated 20 minutes today, his return should take a while.
Faulk will go down to the AHL where he will actually get into games. Expect him to be one of the first callups should the team need a spare defender. However, with Derek Joslin already on the bench, he should stay with the Charlotte Checkers most of the season.
Faulk played the team's first two games, registering no points and a minus-6 rating. The team will continue to rotate their blue line as the season progresses but he probably sees some time in the AHL.
With Justin Faulk working with Derek Joslin, he could be a healthy scratch. Through his first three games, the young defenseman was held without a point and with a minus-6 rating. His demotion could pave the way for Jamie McBain or Ryan Murphy to enter the lineup.
Last season, at the University of Minnesota-Deluth, he scored eight goals and 33 points over 39 games. The team seems certain he fits in a top four role this season.
Faulk seems likely to make the team out of camp if the above quotes are any indication. Last season, at the University of Minnesota-Deluth, he scored eight goals and 33 points over 39 games. Expect him to be eased into NHL play.
The Flyers expect JVR to play his best hockey on the top line alongside Jaromir Jagr and Claude Giroux. Last season the 22-year-old scored 21 goals and 40 points over 75 games. Look for him to approach 30 goals in his third professional year.
