Luchanko was drafted 13th overall by the Flyers in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft. The 19-year-old forward played four games with the Flyers this season, but spent most of the 2025-26 campaign in the OHL, where he scored 26 points (5G / 21A) in 27 games this season.

Rodrigo Abols and Nicolas Deslauriers will be healthy scratches on Monday against the Seattle Kraken, allowing Nikita Grebenkin and Jett Luchanko to re-enter the lineup. The 19-year-old Luchanko, the Flyers' 13th-overall pick in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft, has played three games this season and continues searching for his first career point.

Luchanko has dressed in three straight games, but was held off of the scoresheet in each contest. He'll be replaced by Rodrigo Abols in the lineup on Saturday.



Luchanko was a healthy scratch for the last two games, so instead of sitting in the press box, the Flyers have sent the 18-year-old back to his junior team. Luchanko had no points in four games with the Flyers and returns to Guelph where he had 74 points (20G / 54A) in 68 games last season.

Nicolas Deslauriers will make his season debut on Tuesday, replacing Luchanko in the lineup. The 18-year-old Luchanko has yet to find the scoresheet in his debut season, registering a -3 plus/minus and three shots on goal in four games.

Luchanko was selected No.13 overall in this summer's NHL Draft. The 17-year-old forward from London, Ontario, had 20 goals and 54 assists (74 points) in 68 games with the Guelph Storm (OHL) this season. Look for him to return to the OHL for the 2024-25 season.
