Martone was freshly drafted and off to college, and Barkey and Bump were headed into their first full pro seasons. Now, all three are bona fide NHL regulars who played key roles in the Flyers\u2019 improbable run to the second round of the playoffs.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>They don\u2019t even need to be here. Martone\u2019s barely had three weeks of rest, following up his playoff run by playing alongside Sidney Crosby and Macklin Celebrini for Team Canada at the World Championships. But it was important for each to come back to Voorhees, both to work on their skills and to help the next group of prospects along.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m still a young guy here,\u201d Martone said Monday. \u201cI think I could use my learned experiences \u2014 and my experience in the playoffs and at the ending stretch there with the Flyers \u2014 to help everyone here. I still might be younger than some guys, but I think that\u2019s valuable, to come back here, be a leader, show them what it\u2019s like being a Philadelphia Flyer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=1773\">Layoffs are \u2018inevitable\u2019 at Temple as school looks to cut $60 million, president says<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Martone didn\u2019t participate in the skill sessions on the first day, choosing instead to focus on power skating and off-ice workouts. Monday was his first day back on the ice since the World Championships. After camp, he plans to return to East Lansing for a week to train with the strength coaches at Michigan State, and then head home to Ontario before training camp in the fall.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Having guys like Martone, Barkey, and Bump \u2014 who know the drills, the facility, and the staff \u2014 on hand can be an invaluable resource for the newer members of the organization. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>And there\u2019s still plenty for that trio to learn. Martone said he felt like he had to improve at \u201ceverything\u201d this summer to become the power forward he wants to be. Barkey agreed, but had a few more specific things he was getting a jump start on at camp.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe biggest thing for me this summer is putting on a couple extra pounds and working on my first three steps,\u201d Barkey said. \u201cGetting in and out of corners, having the weight and the strength to win battles, and then also having the first three steps to get away from the bigger guys, and have a little bit of space to make plays. I think that\u2019ll be my bread and butter, and it takes time, but definitely working toward that.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Breakaways<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Three of the Flyers\u2019 draft picks, Czech goalies Martin Psohlavec and Marek Skleni\u010dka and Finnish defenseman Max Laatikainen, were not able to travel in time for the start of development camp, but they are expected to participate later in camp \u2026 Jett Luchanko was not among the players on the ice for the first day of camp. According to Flyers director of player development Riley Armstrong, Luchanko is dealing with a lower-body injury. He is expected to be back skating next week and to be ready for training camp&#8230; Assistant general manager Brent Flahr told The Inquirer that Cole Knuble has a good motor. Kind of sounds like Denver Barkey a little bit, no? \u201cI think just growing up, kind of realized that\u2019s the way I\u2019m going to be able to make it, a guy that\u2019s going to go in every battle,\u201d Knuble said. \u201cAnd I think growing up the emphasis was, not goals or assists, it was always, did you win your 50-50s and did you stick your nose in there. That\u2019s kind of the way I was coached growing up. So yeah, that was just how I\u2019ve always played.\u201d So was it his dad, former Flyers forward Mike Knuble, who taught him that? \u201cOh, yeah, he used to say if you have 12 eggs in your pockets, they should all be broken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=1771\">Left-wing Democratic primary wins pose a test for a Jeffries speakership<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Martone, Denver Barkey, and Alex Bump, who all made key contributions in the playoffs last season, were the biggest names on the ice for Day 1 in Voorhees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1776,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1777","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Why is Porter Martone back at development camp?
