The Philadelphia Flyers made a move that felt inevitable once their blue line finally got healthy — placing defenseman Egor Zamula on waivers.
In this episode, we break down why the Flyers made the call, how Rasmus Ristolainen’s return reshaped the defense, and why Zamula became the odd man out despite flashes of promise. We’ll dive into what Zamula struggled with, what this means for the Flyers’ defensive depth moving forward, and why Noah Juulsen’s role matters more than fans might think.
Plus, with Tyson Foerster ruled out for the season, we explore how this decision connects to potential roster flexibility — including whether Alex Bump could get a look as the Flyers approach the roster freeze.
Is this a setback for Zamula… or the reset he needs to force his way back into the lineup?

He'll get scooped up and make a few mill in the KHL. Thanks for your service kiddo..
Bye
Nothing special if he gets claim it would be a blessing.
Had his time no room on the flyers and would be an extra in the AHL.
If Zamula does NOT get claimed, he will block a youngster from getting developmental shifts. No thanks.
RistoLion will claim back the defensive and offensive kingdom
