Adam Ginning (D, Linköping, SHL): The Flyers' 2018 second-round pick has dressed in all nine of Linköping's games to date. He has averaged 12:19 of ice time in a third-pairing role. The 18-year-old has been credited with 10 hits and nine blocked shots. Working on his puck skills is one of Ginning's main goals moving forward. Ginning was a member of Team Sweden at the 2018 World Junior Summer Showcase and has been a national team regular in various age categories coming up through the ranks.

Olle Lycksell (C/W, Linköping, SHL): Coming off a strong performance at the World Junior Summer Showcase for Team Sweden, Lycksell came out of the gates in the SHL regular season with three points in two games. He also scored a nice goal in a game against Brynäs on Oct. 2. His scoring pace has slowed since then (one goal, four points, +3 in nine games) but the 19-year-old has done a solid job overall centering the Linköping third line. He's averaged 13:19 of ice time for the first-place team. Lycksell is close to a lock for Sweden's World Junior Championship roster.

The European regular seasons have been underway for the better part of a month. This season, the Flyers have more prospects simultaneously playing in Sweden (7) than any single year previously in franchise history. Additionally, there are two Flyers goaltending prospects plying their trade in Russia.

Linus Högberg (D, Växjö, SHL): A supporting cast defenseman for last season's SHL champion Växjö Lakers and a bit player for Team Sweden's silver medal winning WJC squad, the 20-year-old puck-moving defenseman has taken on bigger responsibilities this season for the Lakers. He has averaged 18:46 of ice time (up from 14:36 last year) and has seen more multi-situational usage. A smooth skater, the biggest thing the Flyers hope to see from him moving forward is adding muscle to his 6-foot-1 frame. Through eight games, Högberg has posted a plus-two (+4, -2) rating at even strength.

Felix Sandström (G, HV71, SHL): In the first year of his NHL entry-level contract with the Flyers, the 21-year-old netminder is on loan to HV71 Jönköping. He is likely to come to North America next season and join the AHL's Lehigh Valley Phantoms. Sandström, who won Best Goaltender honors for Team Sweden at the 2016-17 World Junior Championships, missed much of last season with a hiatal hernia. Now with a new team, he has started six of eight games for HV71, posting a 2.32 GAA and .911 save percentage despite only winning two games thus far. He is likely to see international tournament play for Tre Kronor during the SHL schedule breaks.

Samuel Ersson (G, Västerås, Allsvenskan): A product of the Brynäs junior system (same team as Sandström, fellow 2018 Flyers draftee Marcus Westfält and current Flyers left winger Oskar Lindblom), the 19-year-old Ersson has moved up from the junior to join a men's team playing in Sweden's highest minor league below the SHL. He's off to an excellent start, posting 4-1-0 record, 1.80 GAA, .933 save percentage and two shutouts while starting five of the team's nine games to date. Ersson has a shot at earning a roster spot for Sweden at the World Junior Championships; more likely in a backup than starter's role. He played in one game at the 2018 World Junior Summer Showcase.

Marcus Westfält (C, Brynäs, SHL): A big-framed and physically strong center with two-way upside if he can improve his skating, Westfält established himself as a fourth-line player with Brynäs in the second half of last season. However, he did not make the cut for this year's opening-night roster and began the season back with the Brynäs J20 team. He has subsequently been recalled to the SHL roster -- it should be noted that, in Sweden, junior team eligible players sometimes play both for the SHL and J20 teams depending on the two squads' schedules. For the SHL squad, Westfält has dressed in three games and averaged 9:41 of ice time in a fourth-line role. He's played in six J20 games (one goal, two assists) to date.

David Bernhardt (D, Djurgården, SHL): Bernhardt was a regular starter last season for Djurgården but the 21-year-old has been out of favor in the early going of the 2018-19 campaign. A healthy scratch in the first couple games of the season, Bernhardt has dressed in the last five games as a sixth or seventh defenseman, averaging 7:59 of ice time. Skating deficiencies and defensive consistency have been his main knocks coming up through the ranks but he seemed by last season to be on the right track. At the Swedish junior level, he was a high-scoring offensive-minded defenseman.

Kirill Ustimenko (G,MHK Dynamo St. Petersburg, MHL): One of the top two goaltenders in the Russian junior league (MHL) last season, Ustimenko was hopeful of moving up this season to earn a spot with a men's team in the top minor league (VHL) but was reassigned to his junior club. The 19-year-old has been a workhorse again for the MHK Dynamo club, posting 1.95 GAA and .914 save percentage through 17 games. He has a good chance of playing for Russia at the World Junior Championships. Back in July, Ustimenko attended the Flyers Development Camp.

Ivan Fedotov (G,Toros Neftekamsk, VHL): The 6-foot-7 goaltender had a steep learning curve to conquer when he aged out of junior hockey eligibility. Fedotov, who will turn 22 on Nov. 28, has turned a corner at the VHL level early this season, posting a stellar 1.24 GAA and .945 save percentage through his first seven games. Fedotov's Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) rights belong to Salavat Yulaev Ufa, and he's currently third on their depth chart.
