The 28-year-old forward gave the Flyers a solid lift in a bottom-six role after starting last season with AHL affiliate Lehigh Valley. He was somewhat of an afterthought when he came to the Flyers in the October trade that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsphiladelphia.com\/nhl\/philadelphia-flyers\/flyers-trade-ryan-ellis-contract-to-sharks-acquire-two-players\/688028\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsphiladelphia.com\/nhl\/philadelphia-flyers\/flyers-trade-ryan-ellis-contract-to-sharks-acquire-two-players\/688028\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">sent Ryan Ellis&#8217; contract to the Sharks<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But Grundstrom ended up playing 47 games for the Flyers. He recorded nine goals, four assists and a plus-7 rating in 11:51 minutes per game. He opened eyes with a heater in December, when he scored seven goals over an 11-game stretch.<\/p>\n<p>The Flyers liked his speed and pace on the fourth line. He even played a little bit of center when needed. He added an assist in three playoff games.<\/p>\n<p>With the Flyers&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsphiladelphia.com\/nhl\/philadelphia-flyers\/flyers-trade-garnet-hathaway-to-panthers-acquire-draft-picks\/739104\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsphiladelphia.com\/nhl\/philadelphia-flyers\/flyers-trade-garnet-hathaway-to-panthers-acquire-draft-picks\/739104\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">trade of Garnet Hathaway last week<\/a>, some opportunity opened for Grundstrom to return.
