Roster notes:

1) Injury-related absences: Left winger Isaac Ratcliffe sustained a broken rib during pre-camp training and will miss a minimum of four weeks. Goaltender Kirill Ustimenko recently underwent surgery to repair a torn left hip labrum. The recuperation time period anticipated is between four to five months.

2) Four players remain on loan to teams in Europe and will not be in camp with the Flyers: German Rubtsov (HK Sochi, KHL), David Kase (HC Karlovy Vary, Czech Extraliga), Maksim Sushko (Dinamo Minsk, KHL), and Linus Högberg (HC Vita Hästen, Allsvenskan).

3) Second-year forward Joel Farabee has switched uniform numbers. He wore No. 49 last season as a rookie but will now sport No. 86.

4) Among new players on the team, the following uniform numbers have been issued: Linus Sandin will wear No. 36, Erik Gustafsson will wear No. 56, Wade Allison will wear No. 57, Tanner Laczynski will wear No. 58, and Derrick Pouliot will wear No. 51.

5) 2020 first-round pick Tyson Foerster will wear No. 52 and 2020 fourth-round pick Zayde Wisdom will wear No. 71.

6) There are no PTO players in camp, and all prospects in camp with the exception of draft-plus-two WHL goaltender Roddy Ross (No. 69) are under NHL entry-level contract.
