The Philadelphia Flyers Have Signed a Superstars Brother to a PTO

The Philadelphia Flyers have announced official cuts on their roster, and also a surprising signing at the same time, they released the following statement via social media, and their website:

''The Flyers have released forwards Mikael Huchette and Tyler Savard from their amateur try-out contracts (ATO). Forward Alexis Gendron was sent to Blainville-Boisbriand of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, defenseman Ethan Samson was sent to Prince George of the Western Hockey League (WHL) and defenseman Brian Zanetti was sent to Peterborough of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL). ''

The Flyers also sign Cal O'Reilly to a PTO, and he will join the camp on tryout terms beginning Tuesday, Sept. 27. O'Reilly is well known to Leigh Valley Phantoms fans as he is the captain of the Flyers affiliate, and has put up impressive numbers in the AHL within the past few years.

Cal is the brother to Ryan O'Rielly who is currently captain of the St.Louis Blues, and has proven to be a elite-level centerman many years in a row. Just like his brother, they are both proved to produce at the centre position.
