One of the biggest questions today for Flyers fans was if Jamie Drysdale was going to make his Flyers debut tonight. That question has been answered by John Tortorella and the Flyers, and he sure will. Here are the lineup updates for the Flyers, as they host the Montreal Canadiens on their annual Pride night.
Flyers lineup updates:
The Flyers will go with 11F,7D. Nic Deslauriers is scratched
Samuel Ersson starts
Jamie Drysdale will make his Flyers Debut, Marc Staal out
This will be a good game for Drysdale to get his feet wet with the Flyers, “I’’m just looking forward to getting the game in at home in front of the crowd. I heard playing as the home team here is a lot of fun,” Drysdale said.
John Tortorella offered some good thoughts on Drysdale today, “I just want him to play. We’ve talked with him, we’ve gone over stuff with him, I just want him to play. There is going to be hiccups, but he’s a bright young kid, just teach and go through it.”
Keep in mind, the Flyers will host their annual Pride night tonight against Montreal Canadiens. Scott Laughton will host many people from the LBGTQ community.
