Flyers have a golden opportunity to find a spark for the dreadful fourth line.
The Hockey News argues that the Philadelphia Flyers should claim center Aatu Raty off waivers after the Vancouver Canucks placed him on the wire on Wednesday. The publication notes that the Flyers are navigating an early-season 0-5-3 slump and struggling with forward depth under head coach Rick Tocchet, who previously coached Raty during his tenure in Vancouver.
The 23-year-old Finnish forward recorded 14 points in 66 games last season and maintains a career faceoff win rate of 59.1 percent. The outlet suggests Raty could upgrade Philadelphia's bottom-six forward group, pointing out that only the Calgary Flames currently sit ahead of the Flyers in waiver priority order.
