Their Philadelphia Flyers careers ended with a whimper. Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee both played in the team’s 3-0 loss to the New York Islanders on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center, with Frost managing two shots on goal before leaving midway through the second period with an apparent minor injury or illness,

The Flyers hoped both Joel Farabee and Morgan Frost would become major pieces to their future. After all, Farabee had 20 goals in his second career season in a shortened campaign. Frost posted back-to-back 40+ point seasons before this year. These are players who can produce at a high level.

Well, Thursday night’s big swap with Calgary, which brought 28-year-old forward wing Andrei Kuzmenko to Philadelphia in exchange for forwards Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee (both in their mid-20s), just might be a change in that thinking.
