Ivan Provorov says Flyers' style didn't fit his game, thriving with Blue Jackets

Former Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov expressed contentment with his new team, the Columbus Blue Jackets, saying their style allows him to better showcase his skills.
Provorov said the Flyers' playing style negatively impacted his performance in recent seasons and was not optimized for his strengths.
Provorov refused to wear Pride-themed jerseys last season, citing his Russian Orthodox faith, further straining his relationship with the Flyers.
Provorov adjusted quickly with the Blue Jackets, who acquired him in a trade this summer, appreciating their system and approach.
The Flyers may need to make a roster move if injured defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen is activated for Saturday's game.
