Daily News | Justin Braun getting extra ice time as he searches for 200th point
The 36-year-old has been primarily a defensive-oriented player over his 13-year career, but his career-high six goals last season, along with his 12 points, put him at 197 points heading into this season.
However, the Flyers coaching staff has decided to play Braun more often in recent games. He has played in three of the last seven games. Ahead of Sunday’s game against the Bruins, coach John Tortorella announced they were going with an unorthodox lineup. With Seeler out sick, forward Kieffer Bellows will come in, giving them 13 forwards and five defensemen.
Forward James van Riemsdyk is also an over-30 pending free agent on the cusp of a milestone. He’s sitting at 299 goals. While he needs a goal, Braun just needs a point of any type, so they’re trying to work together in these final games.As a pending free agent with a maximum of 51 games played this season, Braun may or may not have another chance to get that 200th point after this season. Braun said he’s trying not to think about it until the season’s over.
