Brad Richardson News

Schenn’s three-game is done and he is set to return to the Flyers’ lineup on Thursday. Schenn is coming off of a career-year and will take his spot on the Flyers’ top line with Claude Giroux and Wayne Simmonds back from Michael Raffl, who was injured last night.

The Flyers and Schenn avoid arbitration by getting this deal signed. Schenn is coming off of a career-year, notching 26 goals and 33 assists (59 points) in 80 games. In the 2016 calendar year, Schenn was among the best fantasy forwards, collecting 44 points (19G / 25A) in 46 games from January-to-April—he had just 15 points (7G / 8A) in the first 34 games of the season. Schenn might not turn into a point-per-game player during the 2016-17 season, but he might be able to top 60 points for the first time in his career.

Schenn suffered a head injury in the Flyers loss to the Oilers on Thursday and is listed as a game-time decision for Saturday’s game vs. the Blue Jackets. Schenn has been on fire recently, collecting seven goals and six assists (13 points) in his last 11 games.

Schenn has just one goal in his last eight games and only seven points (5G / 2A) in 15 games this season. The Flyers will get Pierre Edouard Bellemare back tonight, which is why Schenn comes out. Expect him to be back in the lineup next week.

Richardson played in the first three games of the series, but missed Game 4 and will be a game-time decision tonight in Vancouver. He has no points and a minus-1 rating in the playoffs.

Richardson was not in the Canucks morning skate, so it looks like he could miss tonight’s game after registering an assist in each of his first two games back. Linden Vey will replace Richardson if he can’t go.

Richardson has not played since January 16th, but it looks like he will be back in tomorrow vs. the Maple Leafs. He was expected to be back much sooner, but was sidelined for a total of eight weeks. He has 19 points (8G / 11A) in 43 games this season.

Richardson left the morning skate early, so all signs are pointing towards Richardson missing a third consecutive game.

Richardson will miss his second straight game with a lower-body injury that he suffered in Friday’s game in Carolina. He was hit by a shot from teammate Chris Tanev. There was a chance he could of returned tonight, but he decided not to push it and will wait until after the All Star break.

Richardson left Tuesday’s game early and did not return, but he was on the ice for the Canucks optional morning skate and should play tonight vs. the Panthers. He has eight goals and 11 assists in 38 games this season. Expect Linden Vey to come out of the lineup.

Schenn now has 13 points in 16 games

Richardson was not on the ice for the Canucks morning skate because of an undisclosed injury. He is listed as a game-time decision. Richardson has three goals and three assists in 14 games this season.

When Scott Hartnell was traded this summer, the big question was "who will fill that spot on the Flyers top line?" There were four candidates, Brayden Schenn, Wayne Simmonds, Matt Read and R.J Umberger. For now, that spot will belong to the 23-year-old Schenn. He had 20 goals and 21 assists (41 points) in 2013-14 and now has even more upside playing with one of the leagues top setup men.

Richardson missed the last seven games with an undisclosed injury that he suffered on March 4th. He will replace Chris Tanev (finger) in the Canucks lineup tonight. Richardson Richardson has not scored a goal since January 1, and has just one assist in that span of 20 games.

Richardson will not dress for a third consecutive game on Monday. He was believed to be a healthy scratch when he sat out the last two games, but head coach John Tortorella said today that Richardson is day-to-day. After a good start to the season, Richardson has not scored a goal since January 1, and has just one assist in that span of 20 games.

The Canucks traded Roberto Luongo and acquired Matthias, a big, strong third line centre which will diminish Richardson's role going forward.

Richardson missed the last two games with an undisclosed injury. With Henrik Sedin out once again, Richardson could be asked to play a larger role. He has 17 points (8G / 9A) and was playing an average of 17:49 while Sedin was out originally.
