Andreas Nodl

Nodl's season came to a premature end due to a concussion, but apparently that didn't scare the Flyers away from inking him to a two-year deal this summer. In his first full season of work in the pros, Nodl had 11 assists and goals both to accompany his plus-14 rating. He'll likely be given a bigger role after the Flyers re-tooled the roster this offseason, though that might not translate into a bigger fantasy impact as the increase in responsibility might come solely on the penalty kill.

The Flyers are hoping Nodl can take a step forward in his development this year, though he's likely slated for a heavy dose of AHL action.

The Austrian signed an entry-level contract and is likely to start the season in the AHL but could see time with the Flyers if he has a good camp.

The 2006 2nd round pick has the chance to be a good player, but he is still several seasons away.

Nodl is a potential gem. He owns a sound two-way game and solid goal-scoring acumen, and is an above-average skater. He's headed to St. Cloud State for the 2006-07 season and is at least three or four years from making his pro debut.
