2025 Fantasy Outlook
Foerster struggled with consistency in the 2024-25 regular season, compiling 25 goals and 43 points across 81 appearances. He concluded the campaign with nine goals and 13 points in 12 outings, but a slow start played a significant role in preventing him from being a 50-point producer. Still, Foerster was a decent source of secondary offense while playing alongside Bobby Brink and Noah Cates. The 23-year-old Foerster also logged time on the first power-play unit, earning the second-most goals (six) and points (eight) on the Flyers. He could flirt with the 30-goal mark in 2025-26 and has 45-55 point potential if his role continues to increase. However, he may miss time at the start of the year due to an injury suffered at the IIHF World Championship in May, which could lead to another slow start. Read Past Outlooks

On injured reserve

December 3, 2025
Foerster (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The Flyers announced Tuesday that Foerster is expected to miss the next 2-3 months, so his placement on injured reserve isn't surprising. He has 10 goals and 13 points in 21 outings this season. Matvei Michkov should see an increase in his workload due to Foerster's absence.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Foerster was one of four rookies to reach the 20-goal mark in 2023-24. In 77 games with the Flyers last season, he produced 20 tallies, 13 assists, 167 shots on net and 101 hits. Foerster had a sluggish start and cold finish to the year, but there is reason to believe he can improve in 2024-25. He generated 15 goals, 84 shots and nine helpers during a 37-game span from Nov. 28-March 2. He will likely remain in Philadelphia's top six in 2024-25, though his power-play role might be reduced because of the arrival of highly touted rookie Matvei Michkov. The 22-year-old Foerster could reach the 40-point mark in the upcoming season if his consistency improves.
While it was just a cup of coffee in the 2022-23 season, Foerster impressed with seven points in his first eight games. He likely would have seen more NHL time if he hadn't undergone shoulder surgery last fall, but he'll have a great chance of breaking camp with the Flyers in 2023-24. Obviously, the 21-year-old winger is unlikely to challenge for a point-per-game pace, but he's on a team that lacks an established star on offense, which could give him an opportunity to see top-six minutes. Head coach John Tortorella will expect steady defense as well as offense from Foerster, so it's also very possible the young winger will need more time at AHL Lehigh Valley. Keep an eye on Foerster's usage during training camp. If he appears locked into a roster spot for the Flyers, his upside will rise considerably.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to play Wednesday?
RWPhiladelphia Flyers
November 12, 2025
Although Foerster is considered a game-time decision due to his lower-body injury, he didn't stay on the ice with the projected scratches after the morning skate, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports, which might indicate that Foerster's expected to play against Edmonton on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Foerster would be returning after a four-game absence. Carl Grundstrom, who logged 10:17 of ice time in Philadelphia's 3-2 overtime loss to Ottawa in the Flyers' last game Saturday, skated with the projected scratches, so he's probably exiting the lineup to make room for Foerster. The 23-year-old Foerster has four goals and seven points in 11 outings in 2025-26.
