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.

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.

After picking up seven points (2G / 5A) in 35 AHL games, Whitecloud became a fixture on the Golden Knights' third pair before the NHL suspended the season. The 23-year-old defenseman has picked up just one assist in 16 NHL games while adding 10 hits and 16 blocked shots.

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.

Farabee has been summoned from the AHL because Sean Couturier is questionable to play Sunday afternoon due to illness. If Couturier can’t play, Farabee will draw into the lineup.



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 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.
