The Philadelphia Flyers have made a move, as they have signed forward Cole Knuble to a two-year entry-level contract, which kicks in during the 2026-27 season. The Flyers also shared that Knuble will spend the rest of the 2025-26 season with their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. Knuble just finished his junior season with the University of Notre Dame, and it was a solid one for the 21-year-old forward. In 36 games for the school, he had nine goals, 22 assists, and 31 points. This was after he had 12 goals and 39 points in 34 games for the school during the 2024-25 season. Knuble was selected by the Flyers with the 103rd overall pick of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft. The 5-foot-11 forward has the potential to become a solid part of the Flyers' roster in the future, and it will be interesting to see how much of an impact he can make with the Phantoms from here. Knuble is the son of former Flyers forward Mike Knuble, who had 118 goals and 229 points in 338 games with Philadelphia over five seasons.
