Daily News | Flyers urge fans to be patient, promise to be better next season
In what he described as “almost a waste of a year,” Atkinson felt no one deserved to be named MVP, although he was honored to be chosen. But he, along with everyone else, has a lot of work to do to keep the atrocious season from repeating itself a third time.
When asked why, Nate Thompson wasn’t sure. He cited injuries, but eventually came around to the conclusion that “We just weren’t good enough.” “Obviously, it’s not what we all hoped for,” Travis Konecny said. “But there’s been plenty of teams that have dipped for a few years, and then they’re contenders and great playoff teams for years to come. So be patient. We’re coming.”Multiple players with more than a decade of NHL experience said they’ve never been a part of a season where injuries piled on like they did this season.
Ryan Ellis, expected to be the Flyers’ top defenseman after being acquired from Nashville during the summer, said the team finally identified his injury, calling it “multilayered” and having to do with the “pelvic region,” and they now have a plan in place. He expects to be back by training camp. “We have a great leadership group here with guys in the room and I think coming into camp next year, if we have everyone healthy, we could be a really dangerous team in this league,” Joel Farabee said.
