JAKUB VORACEK RUMORS

Bill Meltzer: Meltzer's Musings: Can Flyers Sign Voracek to Multi-Year Deal?

Last summer, after the Flyers acquired the rights of restricted free agent Jakub Voracek from Columbus in the Jeff Carter trade, the ensuing contract negotiations dragged on longer than those for any other unsigned player on the team. Talks between Flyers' general manager Paul Holmgren and Voracek's agent, former Flyers' defenseman Petr Svoboda, were not contentious...

Jake’s Make or Break Season

A guy who has quickly grown on me as one of my favorite Flyers since the beginning of the year is Jakub Voracek. My man crush has gotten to be unreasonable at times for some of my friends. I am a little sour that Homer was proactive in his signings of Coburn (which looks like an absolute steal at 4 years for 18 million) and van Riemsdyk (which looks risky outside of his playoff...

Tim Panaccio: Voracek Has Come Far

I remember talking to some people in Columbus the day the Flyers got Jakub Voracek. They told me that coming to the Flyers would represent a fresh start and perhaps a wake-up call for him. "They're a lot more to him and the Flyers are one club that might be able to get it from him," one person said. I said on CSN on Monday night that I have been very impressed...

Jakub Voracek skated into a brick wall and paid the price for it

Well, it wasn’t quite a brick wall, but it’s the closest thing to it! This happened during last night’s game betweeen the Red Wings and the Flyers: No penalty was called and Kronwall isn’t suspended. Great calls. It was definitely a clean hit -  he didn’t slam his shoulder into Voracek’s body or use his stick.

Report: No Discipline For Kronwall Hit On Voracek

The hit that Nicklas Kronwall put on Jakub Voracek last night was huge. Clean or not? There are different opinions on that. You can watch it and cast your vote here. Regardless, TSN's Bob McKenzie is reporting there will be no discipline for Kronwall.

Video: Kronwall levels Flyers W with huge hit

Niklas Kronwall’s hit on Jakub Voracek Tuesday night was one that you could feel through the TV. The Red Wings were playing the Flyers in Detroit and almost midway through the second period Kronwall laid the back of his shoulder into the body of Voracek and absolutely crushed him. Voracek got up immediately following the hit but had very little understanding of where he...

Red Wings’ Niklas Kronwall smokes Jakub Voracek

Red Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall lined up Philadelphia Flyers forward Jakub Voracek at the Flyers’ blueline tonight, hoping to land an elbow or butt into Voracek’s body…But Voracek was leaning forward and hit Voracek shoulder-to-head. I don’t believe there was any intent to injure on Kronwall’s part, but this will certainly be reviewed as Voracek was woozy and left...
