Flynn got back in the lineup on Tuesday because Tomas Plekanec was battling an injury of his own, but he only played 1:05 TOI before leaving the contest. Consider him day-to-day, but he is not a fantasy asset regardless.
Prince played just 6:34 TOI before exiting Tuesday’s contest with a lower-body injury. Prince recently returned from an upper-body injury and it looks like he could find himself back on the shelf. Prince is expected to return to New York for further evaluation, which suggests he will miss at least the next two or three games.
