Power play units split apart. Jagr, giroux and voracek
Giroux is practicing at full speed and may play against the Stars tomorrow. However, the Flyers are in no rush to get him back into the lineup if it means longer concussion-like symptoms.

#Flyers Claude Giroux out on the ice skating with the team at practice in Colorado.
Fantastic sign for Giroux, who has been sidelined for over a week with a concussion. The top-line center has been skating and working out without symptoms which can only mean good things.
Mac back with Grabo and Kulemin.
The top line from last season is reunited once again. MacArthur has nine goals which is good for third on the team.
#Flyers GM Paul Holmgren: "Giroux's status remains the same. We will have an update on Pronger tomorrow, once we have spoken to the doctors"
Flyers are taking a wait-and-see approach with their young superstar. Prepare for the worst, fantasy hockey owners.

Paul Holmgren said that Claude Giroux skated today for about 15 minutes and that's when he said he felt sluggish.
Giroux skating was a positive sign but concussion-like symptoms have to be seen as a setback of some kind.
Claude Giroux is out indefinitely after taking a knee from teammate Wayne Simmonds to the back of the head. After the first couple days, Giroux said he was feeling fine, but the Flyers played it cautiously. The result on Tuesday is exactly why.
Expect Sean Couturier to get a crack at the top line with Giroux out. At this point there is no timetable for his return as his symptoms have gotten worse.
Claude Giroux will not travel w the flyers to Washington
Remember to keep G out of your lineup for the time being. Stay tuned for a further update on the universally owned forward.

VOORHEES, N.J. — It would have been a surprise if he was on the ice, but Claude Giroux wasn’t on Monday morning for team practice. As expected, the Flyers are holding him out after he was hit in the head on Saturday night by Wayne Simmonds’ right knee and left the game. General manager Paul Holmgren said that he didn’t have headaches after the game and that on Sunday he was feeling better.
Not practicing with the team is a good indication he won't play against the Capitals. Stay tuned for a further update from the team but expect them to play it safe.
