Flyers' Travis Konecny: Suffers undisclosed injury
Rotowire
Konecny exited Friday's practice because of an undisclosed injury, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Konecny got off the ice under his own power, but he seemed to be in discomfort and didn't rejoin his teammates for the remainder of practice. There was no update on his status after the skate, so it's hard to know what his chances are of playing Saturday versus the Rangers. If Konecny and Tyson Foerster (lower body) are both unavailable, then Philadelphia will likely need to call up a forward, possibly Olle Lycksell, who was returned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Cleared for contact
Rotowire
Foerster (lower body) is practicing in a regular jersey Friday, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.
Foerster has missed the last four games after he was injured blocking a shot versus Seattle on Feb. 10. The 22-year-old has 10 goals and 21 points in 52 games this season. He will likely play on the third line alongside Ryan Poehling and Noah Cates upon his return to the lineup. The Flyers sent Olle Lycksell to the minors Friday, suggesting Foerster will likely be able to return Saturday versus the Rangers.

Flyers' Olle Lycksell: Returns to AHL
Rotowire
Lycksell was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday, per CapFriendly.
Lycksell has played just one of the Flyers' seven games since the All-Star break, so it's no surprise his time with the big club has run out for now. Tyson Foerster (lower body) may also be nearing a return, which would mean the Flyers won't need an extra depth forward around.

Flyers' Travis Konecny: Pots game-winner Wednesday
Rotowire
Konecny scored the game-winning goal in Wednesday's 3-1 victory over Chicago.
The second-period tally extended Konecny's point streak to seven games, during which he's racked up five goals and 12 points. The 26-year-old has proven that last season's point-a-game pace was no fluke, collecting 54 points in 57 contests, and he sits four goals short of the career-high 31 he recorded in 2022-23.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Sharp in Chicago
Rotowire
Ersson made 21 saves in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Chicago.
The 24-year-old netminder got beaten by Colin Blackwell midway through the first period, but Ersson shut the door the rest of the way. He's enjoying better support from his teammates at both ends of the ice in February -- the Flyers have scored at least three goals in six straight games, while Ersson has gone 4-1-1 on the month with a 2.51 GAA and .907 save percentage, facing 30 or more shots only once in those six starts.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Absence continues
Rotowire
Foerster (lower body) is not expected to play Wednesday versus the Blackhawks, Jackie Spiegel of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Foerster's absence continues to linger -- this will be his fourth game in a row out of the lineup. The 22-year-old winger was reportedly close to a return last week, but it appears that was not accurate. His next chance to play is Saturday versus the Rangers.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: In goal Wednesday
Rotowire
Ersson will guard the road goal versus the Blackhawks on Wednesday, Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports reports.
Ersson gave up five goals on 39 shots in a 6-3 loss to the Devils in Saturday's Stadium Series game. He had won three of his four previous indoor starts, but he's given up 12 goals over his last three games. He'll catch a break on the matchup Wednesday, as the Blackhawks have scored just 13 goals over their last six games with just one win in that span.

Rotowire
Tippett scored a pair of goals in Saturday's 6-3 Stadium Series loss to New Jersey.
Tippett got Philadelphia on the board in the second period, beating Nico Daws with a wrister for his 20th goal of the year, before adding a second tally on the power play later in the same frame. The 25-year-old Tippett came into Saturday with just one goal in five outings since returning from a four-game stint on IR with a lower-body injury. He's up to 35 points (21 goals, 14 assists) through 52 games this season.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Falls to New Jersey
Rotowire
Ersson allowed five goals on 39 shots in Saturday's 6-3 Stadium Series loss to the Devils.
Ersson couldn't settle in after allowing a breakaway goal to Nico Hischier 32 seconds into the first period, as he'd ultimately surrender five goals before New Jersey added an empty-netter to seal his defeat. The 24-year-old netminder has dropped his last two outings following a three-game winning streak. Overall, he's 15-10-4 with an .898 save percentage and 2.64 GAA this season. Ersson figures to be back between the pipes Wednesday on the road against Chicago.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Still out Thursday
Rotowire
Foerster (lower body) is not in the lineup for Saturday's Stadium Series game versus the Devils, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Foerster will miss his third straight game with the injury. He was expected to miss only a few more days as of last Wednesday, so it's possible he will still be available for the Flyers' road game in Chicago on Wednesday. Philadelphia will go with seven defensem*n and 11 forwards in Saturday's contest.
