Zac Rinaldo News

#Flyers GM Paul Holmgren announced that Zac Rinaldo is day-to-day with an upper body injury and will not play tonight vs. Minnesota.

Rinaldo was hit by an errant puck in practice and won't play tonight. The pugilist has 122 PIM in 35 games. Look for Jody Shelley to draw in.

Rinaldo could be seeing more opportunities thanks to Tom Sestito, who may have had the upper hand in getting a roster spot until this point.

The lackadaisical play of Andreas Nodl could clear a roster spot for the gritty Rinaldo. In his first AHL season the left wing scored three goals and nine points but impressed team brass with 331 PIM. If he makes the team, Rinaldo has a high-PIM upside so keep him in mind in fantasy hockey leagues with deeper rosters.

The Flyers obviously want to take a longer look at young prospects like Sean Couturier, Brayden Schenn, Matt Read, Zac Rinaldo and Tom Sestito, among othe

Rinaldo racked up the PIM last season with the Adirondack Phantoms, accumulating 331 over the entire season. The talented winger saw time during the playoffs which indicates the team is relatively high on him.
