Flyers’ prospects end October in rough shape

The Lehigh Valley Phantoms completed their opening month of the 2026-27 AHL season in rough shape, ending October with a 4-5-1 record. The Philadelphia Flyers' affiliate sits second-to-last in the Atlantic Division after mixed late-October results, including a 7-2 loss to the Syracuse Crunch, a 2-0 shutout against the Belleville Senators, and a 6-3 defeat to the Rochester Americans.

Despite the team's struggles, individual players provided positive contributions during the stretch. Assistant captain Zayde Wisdom scored his first goals of the season against Syracuse and Rochester, while forward Jack Studnicka scored both goals in the shutout victory against Belleville after returning from a three-game NHL stint with the Flyers.
