The gritty forward should be ready for Game 1. Last season he posted a career high 19 goals and 34 points -- totals he could hit if he remains on the third line. Nevertheless, he remains a player who will miss some games every year due to his style of play.
Palmieri failed to show up despite having a chance to earn playing time during training camp. The former 26th overall pick still led the Syracuse Crunch in goals last season and should be considered a top prospect. Look for him to get called up if any significant offensive player gets hurt.
The term day-to-day implies Schenn is not out for a long time. Last season he only posted two assists in his eight-game stint with the LA Kings but is expected to make the team and produce more with the Flyers. Expect him to center the third line.
The Flyers' top prospect will likely be held out of the rest of the game for precautionary measures. Last season he only posted two assists in his eight-game stint with the LA Kings but is expected to make the team. Expect him to center the third line.
No immediate fantasy hockey value while playing in the AHL.
Schenn could make the team as the third line center. He dominated the WHL last year, scoring 21 goals and 53 points in only 27 games. He could have a very high upside if he hits the ground running.
Palmieri holds a decent chance of making the team after leading the Syracuse Crunch of the AHL in scoring last season. His breakout speed and nose for the net are only two NHL-ready qualities, the big question is playing time.
Martin posted 147 PIM and more importantly 300 hits in his 68 games played last season. If your league counts hits, he should provide a decent player on your left side.
Palmieri dominated the AHL last season to the tune of 29 goals and 51 points in 62 games. If he earns a scoring role, he could potentially make an impact in mixed leagues.
