Philadelphia Flyers: Where Have You Gone, Wayne Simmonds? | Bleacher Report
Although the orange and black currently lead the league in goals per game, Simmonds has not been the contributor he was expected to be. Over the past 18 games Simmonds has managed only three goals and one assist with a minus-4 rating, including a six-game stretch from October 24 to November 3 and a seven-game stretch from November 17 to December 2 in which he went scoreless. Simmonds is currently 12th on the Flyers with nine points (5G/4A) trailing three defenseman—Kimmo Timonen (17 points), Chris Pronger (12 points) and Matt Carle (11 points).

Simmond’s 5 goals would be fourth on the Kings, behind Anze Kopitar, Simon Gagne and Mike Richards.
