Flyers Rumors: 2 Possible Landing Spots for Travis Konecny


The Philadelphia Flyers are rebuilding, and star forward Travis Konecny has been in the rumor mill because of it. If the Flyers do in fact shop him this season, there will be a ton of interest in his services. Let's discuss two clubs who could make a push from him now. 

Edmonton Oilers: The Edmonton Oilers were connected to Konecny earlier this summer, so they certainly could try to add him at some point this season. This is especially so if recent free-agent acquisition Connor Brown does not end up working out in their top six. With the Oilers in win-now mode, they could be a great fit for Konecny. 

Detroit Red Wings: After a very busy summer, the Detroit Red Wings are expecting to compete for a playoff spot this season. Yet, they still have cap space to work with and could make a splash for Konecny. They were linked to him this summer as well, so he is a player who has been on their radar. Adding him to their top six would make Detroit far stronger on paper, so let's see if they try to acquire him during this season.
