The roster is seemingly set for the Flyers opening game of the 2023-24 season. It could be very veteran-heavy to start, despite multiple hopefuls making the roster. It will be a balancing act all season to get prospects the playing time needed to further development.

The Flyers are already down to their final handful of cuts with one preseason game and five days to go before the final roster is submitted.

The Flyers open the preseason schedule on home ice by taking on the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night at 7 p.m.

With half of the preseason in the books, check out these observations to this point from Flyers training camp and the preseason.

The Flyers announced that they have signed defenseman Marc Staal to a one-year deal worth $1.1 million.

A low-cost deal that could be flipped at the deadline? Take a flier on a low-risk, high-reward player looking for a chance? There are a few scenarios for the Flyers in free agency starting Saturday.

Alex DeBrincat scored off a turnover by Felix Sandstrom in overtime to hand the Flyers a 5-4 loss to the Ottawa Senators and snap their winning streak at four games.

The Flyers got the game tied again with 5:44 remaining, forcing overtime and the eventual shootout, where the Flyers claimed a 5-4 win over the Wild on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center.

After another case of organizational malpractice at the trade deadline, the choice is in the hands of the Flyers highest-appointed figures. You can accept this reality of being the laughing stock of the NHL and accept the growing distance between yourself and as loyal a fanbase as there is in sports or you can finally do something about it. Time’s yours.

The Flyers are very much in a process. Chuck Fletcher admitted as much one day after John Tortorella continued his season-long message of building. Just don’t expect people to be vocal in their trust in it.
