(Photo: Eric Hartline, Imagn Images) Despite making the cut last year, Philadelphia Flyers [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers] forward Travis Konecny is no longer a top 20 winger in the NHL in the eyes of the NHL Network. On Wednesday, the NHL Network revealed its rankings of the top 20 wingers in the NHL, and we came to find a few newcomers jumped Konecny, 28, in rankings over the last season. Konecny (20), Steven Stamkos (13), Brad Marchand (18), and Zach Hyman (11) made way for newcomers Matt Boldy (19), Adrian Kempe (20), Jesper Bratt (12), and Brandon Hagel (13). Konecny's 76 points did see him finish 30th in the league in scoring amongst all forwards, placing ahead of Alex Ovechkin (ranked 17th by NHL Network), Boldy, and Kempe, but those three all made the playoffs while Konecny and the Flyers finished with the fourth-worst record in the league. Plus, it doesn't help that the 28-year-old ceded some of the limelight to rookie Matvei Michkov [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/latest-news/ex-flyers-prospect-backs-matvei-michkov-to-become-face-of-the-franchise], who will be on this list in no time at all. Flyers Can't Meet Reported Ducks Trade Price for Mason McTavish [https://deweb-519a7.b-cdn.net/post-images/9191006c-8e51-43d1-9950-f24f049e84e5.webp] Flyers Can't Meet Reported Ducks Trade Price for Mason McTavish Following a new report, it would appear the <a href="https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers">Philadelphia Flyers</a> don't have much of a chance of landing Mason McTavish in a trade with the Anaheim Ducks at all. [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/latest-news/flyers-can-t-meet-reported-ducks-trade-price-for-mason-mctavish] Adding to that, Konecny did finish the season with 34 points in his last 44 games, but only seven of those points were goals. For a player who, right or wrong, is seen as the guy who has to carry the Flyers, Konecny fell short down the stretch, and NHL Network likely punished him for that. Overall, the Flyers star finished the 2024-25 season with 24 goals, 52 assists, and 76 points while playing in all 82 regular season games for just the second time in his career, and for the first time since 2018-19.
