Call up / Send down
#Flyers announced that (D) Andreas Lilja has been loaned to their AHL affiliate, the Adirondack Phantoms, on a conditioning assignment.
Expect Lilja to get back into games with the Flyers over the next two weeks.
In the third period, Lilja sustained a high ankle sprain. According to general manager Paul Holmgren, it will keep him on the shelf for six weeks.
Lilja was seeing increased playing time but now won't play for a while. Look for Kevin Marshall to take his place in the lineup.

Looks like Andreas Lilja will be swapped for Matt Walker again tonight.
Just a swap of third-pairing defenders which barely impacts fantasy hockey lineups.
Line Change
Lilja in pregame skate for #Flyers; Walker is not.
Lilja in, Walker out. Lines updated.
