Another Flyers Forward is Sidelined; 9th One This Season
Another day, another injury to a Philadelphia Flyers forward.
The latest is Tanner Laczynski, who was injured in the third period of Monday’s 5-3 win over visiting Colorado. Laczynski scored a goal in the victory.
The center/winger has a lower-body injury and was placed on IR; he is listed as week to week, according to general manager Chuck Fletcher.
Laczynski, 25, a former Ohio State star who has two goals in 19 games, is the fifth forward sidelined. The others: Wade Allison (oblique/hip), Cam Atkinson (upper body), Sean Couturier (back), and James van Riemsdyk (finger). Combined, they have missed 151 games.
