The Flyers have sent Joel Farabee to Lehigh Valley (AHL).

Carter Hart will miss 2-to-3 weeks with an abdominal strain and that affected their cap situation. Farabee had to be sent down in order to call-up Alex Lyon to serve as Brian Elliott's backup on Wednesday. Chris Stewart was also placed on waivers, so expect Farabee to be recalled tomorrow once Stewart is claimed or clears waivers (most likely).

The NHL has suspended Joel Farabee for three games for his hit on Mathieu Perreault on Sunday.

Farabee was suspended for his "interference" on Perreault in the blowout loss. Perreault is out with a concussion and Farabee will miss the next three contests. This is a poorly timed suspension for the Flyers, who were without Travis Konecny, Oskar Lindblom, Tyler Pitlick, Scott Laughton, Michael Raffl and Nolan Patrick on Sunday.

Kadri (lower-body) will miss his third straight game on Monday.

Kadri was on the ice in a non-contact sweater this morning and remains day-to-day with a lower-body injury. Kadri won't play vs. the Flames but his availability for the morning skate suggests that he will return to the lineup later this week.

Stone is expected to be back in the Flames lineup on Saturday.

Stone was a healthy scratch vs the Sabres on Thursday but is expected to replace Oscar Kylington on Saturday night. Stone doesn't provide a lot of offence, having scored just one goal with two assists in 15 games this season.
