Jakub Voracek is still in negotiations with the Philadelphia Flyers, but GM Paul Holmgren is confident a deal with be reached shortly. The 22-year-old restricted free agent is likely looking for a long-term deal after being given a qualifying offer in June. Voracek collected 18 goals and 31 assists in 78 games last season, and he likely enters this campaign on the first line beside Claude Giroux. He is a player with upside and may see an increased role with the club next year.
