Jakub Voracek is so much more than Travis Konecny's teammate. He's also a fan.
Voracek, always a good quote, was at it again Saturday after his Philadelphia Flyers snapped a five-game losing streak with a 4-2 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Philly was down 1-0 after 20 minutes despite dominating possession and play, and it was Konecny who tied the game up, with Voracek drawing the primary assist. The Flyers wouldn't trail again.
Travis Konecny "works his balls off," Jake Voracek said.

The goal was Konecny's sixth of the season, and the 19-year-old rookie now has two goals in three games since being a healthy scratch.
