Morgan Frost trade incoming and its clear why Torts benched him

Despite Morgan Frost's 17 goals and 46 points last season, John Tortorella isn't a fan.

Despite having 2 goals and 2 assists in the last 4 games, Frost was once again scratched against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The new front office gives Tortorella more leeway and gives him the ear of Danny Briere and Keith Jones.




According to Dan Silver of O&B Podcast, Morgan Frost may be done in Philadelphia.

As he points out, now President of Hockey Operations Keith Jones was on broadcast last season and was not a fan of Frost, according to Silver.

The writing may be on the wall after Tortorella compared Frost to a toilet seat last season.

From Flyers reporter Charlie O'Connor:




Frost, who was replaced by Bobby Brink in the Flyers lineup Sunday, has tallied four points in 10 games since being drafted 27th overall in the 2017 NHL draft.

If the Flyers move on from the Center, it's to be expected multiple teams will inquire about him as they have in the past, including the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens.
