Andrae, 22, made the Flyers out of camp last year but spent most of the season with AHL Lehigh Valley. He believes that experience and added explosiveness will prepare him to stick around this time.
Defenseman Emil Andrae played four games for the Flyers in 2023-24. He's hoping for more heading into this season.ALLENTOWN — Emil Andrae had just finished playing almost 12 minutes in the Flyers’ 3-2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Oct. 24 when he was pulled aside in T-Mobile Arena.
Aside from seeing him step up his game, Phantoms head coach Ian Laperrière also noticed something else from his blueliner. “Sometimes he was getting frustrated on the bench and snapping in Swedish, and I don’t speak Swedish,” Laperrière said. “He’s not mad at anybody on the ice. He’s not mad at any of his teammates. He’s mad at himself, but that’s something he’s got to learn. He’s only wasting energy. Bottle that energy and put it all there instead.”
Andrae would have played even more games this past season had he not missed about a week after sustaining an upper-body injury in his second game back in the AHL. Looking back, he thought the injury hindered his momentum and consistency, but he has learned about his game — and himself — and feels he is more prepared for the upcoming season.
