Philly has been inconsistent in recent weeks, going 4-4-2 over the last 10 games. The Flyers enter this game coming off a 2-1 (2-1) home shootout loss to the St. Louis Blues on Monday, gaining one point for their efforts. Scott Laughton (10th goal of the season) had the lone tally for Philadelphia.
In Konecny's absence, center Scott Laughton and winger Tyson Foerster have both stepped up dramatically. Foerster generated a half-dozen shots on goal in the St. Louis game, although he did not get on the scoresheet. Over his last six games, Foerster has racked up six goals and seven points.
