EDMONTON, Alberta — After exiting Monday’s game early against the Calgary Flames, Flyers leading scorer Travis Konecny has been ruled out for Tuesday’s game vs. the Edmonton Oilers with an upper-body injury.​

​

Konecny, who leads the team in goals (27) and points (54), took a heavy hit from behind from Calgary defenseman MacKenzie Weegar along the boards in the second period against the Flames. He curled up along the boards in visible pain until the play stopped, eventually getting to his feet and gingerly skating off. From there, Konecny headed straight down the tunnel and did not return for the rest of the contest. According to The Athletic’s Julian McKenzie, he was seen wearing a sling after the game.​

At least he doesn’t have a limp.

I was also told that things like this wouldn’t happen with Deslauriers in the lineup. Guess that was a load of BS.

There goes one of the few things fun to watch.

I think this team can do even better without Konecny. Torts will get extra buy in. The organization’s Year Zero plan for talent can get a trial run.

I am guessing a shoulder injury, could have popped it landing after being hit.

The update provided is limited to tonight's game: upper body, will not play.

 

[DancingPanther]

Only the Flyers would announce an update on an injured, day to day designated player is coming on Thursday, announce nothing on Thursday, then on Friday announce he isn't playing tonight and is day to day
