So who is going to Detroit, London, Ont., and Toronto for the Flyers?

Coach John Stevens said this week that whoever made that trip was in the mix to be on the final roster.

There were a few surprises, but not much. I am convinced that between Blair Betts and Mark Bell, one of them gets a roster spot.

That said, James van Riemsdyk, Lukas Kaspar and Mika Pyorala have been the most impressive forwards in camp. I still say ... JVR will start the season as a Phantom to get him NHL-ready with AHL punishment. Just like the club did with Claude Giroux.

So who is going and who is not going on the road trip? Andreas Nodl is going ... So is Jared Ross ...

Flyers are scrimmaging today ...

Not a very good debut for Swedish GT prospect Johan Backlund, who has given up 5 goals already ... Jeff Carter has a pair against him ...

Hey, Ian Laperriere scored, for Team Black which is trailing 5-2.
