Farabee will draw into the Flyers lineup on Thursday.

Michael Raffl was hurt in the third period of the Flyers' win over the Bruins on Saturday, opening the door for Farabee to play against the Capitals on Thursday. There's no indication what line Farabee will play on but he comes in having picked up 21 points (8G / 13A) in 52 games.

The Flames have signed Dustin Wolf to a three-year, entry-level contract.

Wolf was picked in the seventh-round of the 2019 draft and has been an absolute stud ever since. The 19-year-old had another terrific season with Everett (WHL), tying for the league-lead in Wins (34) and leading the league in GAA (1.88), SV% (.936) and shutouts (9). Unsurprisingly, he was named the WHL's top goaltender of 2019-20 and appears to be on the fast-track to the NHL.

The Flyers have recalled Joel Farabee from Lehigh Valley (AHL).

Farabee has scored three goals with one assist in five AHL games since being sent down on February 24th. With James van Riemsdyk suffering a broken hand last night, Farabee is expected to jump right back into the Flyers lineup on Thursday. He has picked up 20 points (7G / 13A) in 49 games with Philadelphia this season.

Coleman (personal) will be a game-time decision on Thursday.

Coleman is with his wife while they are expecting their first child and it's unclear whether or not he will play on Thursday. Monitor his status when the Lightning hit the ice for warmups at 6:30 pm ET. They will likely dress seven defensemen if Coleman can't play.

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

The Flyers added two forwards at the deadline (Derek Grant and Nate Thompson) so they'll send Farabee back to the AHL "for now." GM Chuck Fletcher said that he wants "to make sure we’re giving Joel all the ability to be the player he can become. He’s only 19. He’s been a big part of our team but he’s going to be an even bigger part of our future…I have no doubt he’ll be back with us and help us.” This move also keeps Farabee available for the AHL playoffs.

Kadri (lower-body) will miss 4-to-6 weeks.

The Avalanche originally listed Kadri as week-to-week but head coach Jared Bednar gave a more detailed timetable on Wednesday. Their second-line centre will miss at least one month, which means J.T. Compher will get an extended look in the top-6 and could put Colorado in the market for a centre at the trade deadline.

Farabee (illness) will return to the Flyers lineup on Tuesday.

Farabee missed the last three games with an illness but will replace Morgan Frost tonight vs. the Islanders. Farabee will be back on the second line with Kevin Hayes and Travis Konecny and has four goals with two assists in his last six games.

Kadri is week-to-week with a lower-body injury.

Kadri was forced to leave Sunday’s game with a lower-body injury and did not return. The timing could not be worse for Kadri, who has posted nine points (4G / 5A) in his last eight games, marking his hottest stretch of the season. Players like J.T. Compher and Tyson Jost will likely be force-fed top-6 minutes in Kadri’s absence.
