Nick Seeler Could Return Monday

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Nick Seeler (lower body) practiced fully on Sunday and is considered a game-time call for Monday's tilt against the New York Rangers. It appears likely that Seeler will return from a two-game absence. After posting a career-high 20 points last season, Seeler has taken a step back in 2025-26. He has recorded eight points (two goals, six assists), along with 74 shots, 112 blocks, and 95 hits. In his last 14 appearances, Seeler has managed no goals and only one assist.

Travis Konecny a Game-Time Call Monday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (upper body) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's matchup with the New York Rangers. He has missed three games with an upper-body injury. Konecny practiced fully on Sunday, which suggests he could be ready to return on Monday night. Despite missing time, Konecny remains Philadelphia's leader in all the main offensive categories. He has amassed 57 points (23 goals, 34 assists) in 58 games. Konecny's recent form has been particularly impressive, as he has finished seven of his last 13 appearances with multiple points.

Travis Konecny Remains Out Saturday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (upper body) will miss a third consecutive game on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Flyers recently lost their top scorer to an upper-body injury, and Konency practiced on Friday with a non-contact jersey. Across 58 appearances this season, Konecny has contributed 23 goals and 34 assists. With him on the shelf, Denver Barkey will work in a top-six role on Saturday. The 20-year-old rookie has managed 10 points (two goals, eight assists) through his first 26 career appearances this season.

Nick Seeler Suffers Lower-Body Injury Versus Maple Leafs

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Nick Seeler (lower body) logged only 6:01 of ice time in Monday's 3-2 shootout win against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The team lost him to a lower-body injury in the second period, and head coach Rick Tocchet didn't have an update on Seeler after the game. Seeler has appeared in all 60 Flyers games this season, registering eight points (two goals, six assists), 74 shots, 112 blocks, and 95 hits. The 32-year-old has struggled to replicate his form from last season, when he had a career-high 20 points. Philadelphia has Noah Juulsen and Adam Ginning on the roster as potential replacements for Seeler. The team will be back in action on Thursday night against the Utah Mammoth.

Travis Konecny a Game-Time Decision Monday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Monday's matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs, TSN's Mark Masters reports. The Flyers could be without Konecny for only the second time this season. Konecny is on pace for a second consecutive 70-point campaign. He leads Philadelphia with 57 points (23 goals, 34 assists) in 58 games. If Konecny can't play, Owen Tippett may get a top-six role, with Nicolas Deslauriers likely to fill the void in the lineup.

Travis Konecny Extends Multi-Point Streak Tuesday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny celebrated his 700th career game with two assists in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Washington Capitals. He managed to keep his multi-point streak alive in the final minutes. Konecny had his first helper when Jamie Drysdale scored a power-play goal with 5:23 left in regulation, and Rasmus Ristolainen's empty-net goal 17 seconds from the end gave Konecny his fourth consecutive multi-point game. The 28-year-old has been red-hot lately and will probably be disappointed that there's going to be an international break soon. Konecny has racked up 15 points (eight goals, seven assists) in his past nine outings. He has taken over the scoring lead among the Flyers, boasting 54 points (22 goals, 32 assists) in 54 games.

Samuel Ersson Sustains Lower-Body Injury Thursday

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Samuel Ersson (lower body) left Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Boston Bruins after two periods of play. He suffered a lower-body injury and was replaced by Dan Vladar for the final frame. It was a miserable night for Ersson, who allowed five goals on 20 shots. Fortunately for Philadelphia, Vladar returned from injury on Wednesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets, giving the team a proven option between the pipes if Ersson misses time. Last week, Ersson beat the league-leading Colorado Avalanche, but he has posted a disappointing .856 save percentage this season and holds an 8-10-5 record with a 3.51 goals-against average.

Travis Konecny Questionable for Thursday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (foot) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Boston Bruins, Jackie Spiegel of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Konency scored his third career hat trick in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, but he injured his foot blocking a shot. On Wednesday, Konency took over the scoring lead on his team, boasting 48 points (20 goals, 28 assists) through 51 appearances. His potential absence on Thursday could give Matvei Michov a first-line role. Bobby Brink is also a candidate to step into the top six.

Rasmus Ristolainen Doesn't Finish Wednesday's Loss

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen (lower body) logged only 1:01 of action in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Finnish veteran recently returned from an upper-body injury and was in the lineup for the second time after a six-game absence. Unfortunately, he may now have to miss time again. Ristolainen also sat out the start of the season and has played just 15 times in 2025-26. He has recorded three assists, 24 shots, 25 blocks, and 16 hits with a minus-five rating. If Ristolainen is unavailable on Thursday against the Boston Bruins, Emil Andrae will rejoin the Flyers' backline.

Dan Vladar  • G  •  Flyers

Dan Vladar Returns to Flyers Crease

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Dan Vladar (lower body) was activated from Injured Reserve and will start Wednesday's contest against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Czechia netminder has been out for six games while dealing with a lower-body injury. Across 28 prior starts this season, Vladar has posted a good 16-7-4 record. While he hasn't yet registered a single shutout, the 28-year-old has limited opponents to 2.46 goals while producing a .905 save percentage. The Blue Jackets are on a 6-1-0 run and scored eight goals in their last outing, making this a tough game for Vladar's return to the net.

Rasmus Ristolainen Returns to Flyers Lineup

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve and will return to the lineup for Monday's tilt against the New York Islanders. The Finnish veteran has been sidelined for six games due to an upper-body injury. Ristolainen has made 13 appearances this season, registering three assists, 24 shots, 24 blocks, and 16 hits, while averaging 20:59 of ice time. He will join Emil Andrae on the second defensive pairing on Monday, bumping Noah Juulsen out of the lineup. While Ristolainen's return will be a big boost for a Flyers defense that has allowed 38 goals across the last eight games, he has minimal fantasy appeal.

Christian Dvorak Notches Three Points in Wednesday's Loss

Philadelphia Flyers center Christian Dvorak ended a four-game point drought with two goals and one assist in Wednesday's dramatic 5-4 overtime loss to the Utah Mammoth. Dvorak's second tally of the night put the Flyers up 4-2 entering the third period, and they still led by one with a minute remaining in regulation, but ultimately let the win slip away. Dvorak's recent play in the offensive zone hasn't been productive, but he's had a solid campaign overall, earning him a five-year, $25.75 million contract extension earlier this month. The 29-year-old is Philadelphia's third-highest scorer, with 32 points (12 goals, 20 assists) in 48 games.

Rodrigo Abols Expected to Miss Several Months

Philadelphia Flyers center Rodrigo Abols (lower body) will be out for "months," Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports. Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet refused to rule Abols out for the rest of the season, but it's clear that he faces a long spell on the sidelines. Across 42 outings this season, Abols has logged 10 points (three goals, seven assists), 43 shots, and 49 hits. On Monday, it was announced that Abols will be replaced on Team Latvia for the Olympics by Rihards Bukarts. In Philadelphia, Lane Pederson replaced Abols in the lineup on Monday night against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Bobby Brink Available Monday Night

Philadelphia Flyers right wing Bobby Brink (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve and is expected to rejoin the lineup on Monday night against the Vegas Golden Knights. The 24-year-old has been unavailable for six games due to an upper-body injury. Brink is projected to skate with Matvei Michkov and Noah Cates and should also see power-play time on the second unit. In 2025-26, Brink is attempting to post his second consecutive 40-point campaign. He has notched 11 goals and 20 points through 41 appearances. Philadelphia's forwards have an appealing fantasy matchup on Monday, facing a team with the third-lowest save percentage in the league.

Flyers Place Rodrigo Abols on Injured Reserve

Philadelphia Flyers center Rodrigo Abols (lower body) was placed on Injured Reserve on Sunday. In a corresponding move, the team recalled Lane Pederson from the AHL. Abols suffered a lower-body injury during Saturday's 6-3 defeat to the New York Rangers. He is now set to miss at least three games, and Team Latvia will be praying that Abols won't be forced to miss the Olympics due to his injury. Abols averages just over a hit per game and has notched 10 points (three goals, seven assists) in 42 appearances this season.

Jamie Drysdale Activated From Injured Reserve

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Jamie Drysdale (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve ahead of Wednesday's matchup against the Buffalo Sabres. The 23-year-old is expected to return from a three-game absence as Cam York's partner on the second defensive pairing. Drysdale is enjoying a good bounce-back campaign in 2025-26, recording 18 points (three goals, 15 assists), 45 shots, and 41 blocks in 41 games, with a plus-one rating. Last season, Drysdale had only 20 points and finished the year with a team-worst minus-32 rating.

Carl Grundstrom Misses Sunday's Practice

Philadelphia Flyers right wing Carl Grundstrom (illness) missed Sunday's practice, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. The Swedish forward was dealing with an illness, putting his status for Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning in doubt. Grundstom had an impressive four-game goal streak last month and has lit the lamp seven times in total across 17 appearances this season. He has also contributed one assist while racking up 50 hits. With Travis Konecny (knee) and Bobby Brink (upper body) also hurt, the Flyers may have to start the new week of action without three regular forwards.

Travis Konecny Hurt at Sunday's Practice

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (knee) left Sunday's practice session early, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. The 28-year-old took a puck to his knee. After missing Saturday's loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning due to an upper-body injury, Konecny was back on the ice Sunday wearing a regular jersey. It seems he was on track to suit up for Monday's rematch with the Lightning, but Konecny's status is now uncertain due to the new injury. With Konecny out, Matvei Michkov joined the first line on Saturday but couldn't make a positive impact. He has no points across 17:10 of action, finishing with a minus-three rating.

Travis Konecny Ruled Out Saturday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (upper body) will miss his first game of the season on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. He will sit out at least one game due to an upper-body injury sustained in Thursday's loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Meanwhile, Bobby Brink (upper body) will be absent for a second straight game, giving Matvei Michkov a spot on the first line. This enhances Michkov's fantasy value, though Saturday's matchup is a tough one against the third-best defensive team in the NHL.

Travis Konecny a Game-Time Call Saturday

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny (upper body) will be a game-time call on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports. Philadelphia has taken several injury hits this week. But while Bobby Brink (upper body) and Jamie Drysdale (undisclosed) are expected to miss a few games, Konecny may avoid his first absence of the season on Saturday. The 28-year-old sustained an upper-body injury during Thursday's loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Konency is on pace for his second consecutive 70-point campaign. He has scored 38 points (14 goals, 24 assists) across 42 games. If Konecny isn't available on Saturday night, we may see Matvei Michkov in a larger role.
