Daily News | Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher provides updates on Sean Couturier, Ivan Fedotov and more
Flyers General Manager Chuck Fletcher addressed the media on Thursday during the team's first day of training camp.As anyone who’s dealt with back problems knows, every part of daily life involves the back, and anything, from getting into a car to sleeping wrong can tweak it, Flyers general manager Chuck Fletcher said.
On Thursday, Couturier saw a specialist for a second opinion. Fletcher said Couturier does feel much better than he did last season. “He has to fulfill a commitment back in Russia,” Fletcher said. “There’s not much influence we can have on the situation. ... I’ll just leave it that he has to fulfill his commitment in Russia. Obviously, he has a contract with us. But you know, we’ll just let things play out.”
“I mentioned to you guys at the draft and free agency, part of our main focus this year is to provide opportunity for young players to get better,” Fletcher said. “We’ve added a lot of young talent over the last couple of years. And I think it’s really important we find out what we have.” “They’re not just our future anymore; they’re our present,” Fletcher said. “[Tortorella’s] got a proven track record of making players better and pushing players to be better, of developing young players.”As the players sprinted by again and again, a group of new faces watched from behind the bench, ready to help if needed. They’re the new training staff, all carefully chosen to help the Flyers rebound from an injury-riddled season.
