Simmonds scored his first goal of the season during a 5-4 comeback win in Boston on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Since joining the Flyers in 2011-12, Simmonds has averaged nearly 29 goals per 82 game season. However, it took him six games to pot his first goal this season, which prorates to an 82 game total of 13.6 goals. Even more discouraging, Simmonds has yet to score on the power play, when just last year he scored 14 power play goals, the fifth most in the league.
