Flyers Cut Olle Lycksell Again; Long-Term Future In Doubt? The Philadelphia Flyers cut and subsequently assigned Olle Lycksell to the AHL after he cleared waivers Tuesday, officially ending his time...

APRIL 8 • THEHOCKEYNEWS.COM

Lands on waivers Lycksell was designated for waivers by the Flyers on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Lycksell should be in contention for a demotion to AHL Lehigh Valley assuming he passes through waivers unclaimed. In his 19 appearances for Philadelphia this year, the 25-year-old Swede has yet to find the back of the net while registering five assists, nine hits and 10 shots.

Provides assist Thursday Lycksell notched an assist in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Canadiens.

Impact Lycksell wasn't able to keep up momentum from earlier in March when he had three assists over a two-game stretch. He followed it up with six consecutive scoreless outings before setting up a Nicolas Deslauriers tally in the first period Thursday. Lycksell is now at four helpers, nine shots on net, seven hits and a minus-3 rating over 17 NHL appearances this season. He's in a fourth-line role, so fantasy managers likely won't need to turn to him for help this season.

3/13 Postgame: LYCKSELL | Philadelphia Flyers Hear from Olle Lycksell after the 4-3 shootout win against the Lightning.

MARCH 14 • NHL.COM

Three points in last two games Lycksell had two assists Thursday in a 4-3 shootout win over Tampa Bay.

Impact Lycksell really benefited from playing with Bobby Brink, who had a three-point game after being shifted to play with him and Ryan Poehling. He has three assists in his last two games, but his fantasy value remains very limited. Lycksell is a decent role player in the bottom six, but his game is relatively quiet. He doesn't deliver much offense, and he also doesn't offer much by way of secondary categories (four blocks, three hits and five shots; nine games).

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

First point of season Lycksell notched an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Senators.

Impact The helper was Lycksell's first point of the campaign, and it came on a Jamie Drysdale tally in the second period. The 25-year-old Lycksell has a chance to secure his place in the lineup following the Flyers' trades to send away Scott Laughton and Andrei Kuzmenko at last week's deadline. Even if he sticks on a regular basis, Lycksell is in a bottom-six role, so his fantasy upside is minimal.

MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from minors Lycksell was called up by Philadelphia on Friday.

Impact Lycksell has no points in six appearances with the Flyers in 2024-25. He also has 17 goals and 41 points in 40 outings with AHL Lehigh Valley. Philadelphia traded away Scott Laughton and Andrei Kuzmenko to Toronto and Los Angeles, respectively, on Friday, so Lycksell might spend the rest of the campaign in the NHL.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down Wednesday Lycksell was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Wednesday.

Impact Lycksell played in five of the last six contests but failed to record a point. The 25-year-old has seen time on the Flyers' fourth line, but he'll have to wait for his next opportunity. He has three shots on goal, two hits and three blocked shots over six appearances. Lycksell's demotion helped open a roster spot for Anthony Richard to be called up.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled Friday Lycksell was promoted from AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday.

Impact Lycksell made his season debut for the Flyers on Monday before he was returned to the AHL for the holiday break. Lycksell had three shots on goal in 10:58 of action versus Columbus. He led the Phantoms in scoring before his recall with 24 points, including nine goals. Look for Lycksell to have a middle-six role when he is in the Flyers lineup.

Returns to AHL Lycksell was assigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

Impact Lycksell played in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over Columbus, posting three shots on goal in 10:58 of ice time. He has nine goals and 24 points in 25 AHL appearances this season. Lycksell's demotion to the minors could bode well for the availability of Sean Couturier (personal) for Monday's game versus Pittsburgh.

DECEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Called up Saturday Lycksell was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Lycksell played 18 games with the Flyers last season, logging one goal and five points. He got off to a nice start in the AHL this year, recording nine goals and 24 points in 25 contests. Lycksell figures to fill a depth role ahead of Saturday's matchup with Columbus.

DECEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Waived Friday Lycksell was waived by the Flyers on Friday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

Impact Lycksell recorded a goal and five points in 18 outings with Philadelphia in 2023-24. He also scored 19 goals and 39 points across 38 regular-season contests with AHL Lehigh Valley. Should he clear waivers, the 25-year-old is likely to be reassigned to the AHL and continue to dominate at that level, but he probably won't receive more than bottom-six responsibilities should Philadelphia recall him at some point during 2024-25.

OCTOBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to minors Lycksell was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Wednesday.

Impact Lycksell supplied a goal and five points in 18 appearances with the Flyers in 2023-24. He also has 19 goals and 38 points in 36 outings with Lehigh Valley. Philadelphia's season is over, but Lycksell will link back up with the team for training camp to compete for a bottom-six roster spot.

APRIL 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Elevated from minors Lycksell was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Impact Lycksell's promotion could be an indication that there is an injury among the forwards ahead of Tuesday's clash with the Maple Leafs. In his nine previous NHL appearances this season, the 24-year-old Lycksell managed three assists, 13 shots and one hit while averaging 9:47 of ice time. If Lycksell were to get into the lineup Tuesday, it would likely be in a bottom-six role.

MARCH 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to AHL Lycksell was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Lycksell had two assists over four contests during this stint in the NHL, but he was scratched Thursday versus the Panthers. Lycksell has been up and down all season, so he could be back with the Flyers if they trade away forwards ahead of Friday's trade deadline.

MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from minors Lycksell was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

Impact Lycksell has 18 goals and 32 points across 34 AHL appearances this season. The 24-year-old forward also has one assist in five NHL outings during the 2023-24 campaign. Lycksell's call-up doesn't bode well for the status of Travis Konecny (upper body) ahead of Sunday's contest against Pittsburgh.

FEBRUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to AHL Lycksell was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Lycksell has played just one of the Flyers' seven games since the All-Star break, so it's no surprise his time with the big club has run out for now. Tyson Foerster (lower body) may also be nearing a return, which would mean the Flyers don't need an extra depth forward around.

FEBRUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Olle Lycksell ready for a bigger opportunity: 'I want to see if he can bring us some offense' Lycksell, 24, appears like he will get more of a look than he did in his lone game with the Flyers this season on Dec. 7.

JANUARY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
