Guenette made his season debut with the Senators on Thursday, his second career NHL game, registering one shot and two hits in 11:53 time-on-ice. The 22-year-old Guenette was the Senators' seventh-round pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft and has 23 points (4G / 19A) in 41 games with the Belleville Senators (AHL) this season.

Vladar has not played since January 20th, serving as a backup to Jacob Markstrom, and has been activated after being on IR for the last week. The Flames recalled Dustin Wolf from the Calgary Wranglers (AHL) earlier this week before reassigning him back on Friday morning. Vladar owns an ugly 3.27 GAA and .888 SV% in 16 games (7-7-2) this season.

Deslauriers will re-enter the lineup in place of Olle Lycksell, who is listed as a healthy scratch. He'll skate alongside Scott Laughton on the Flyers' fourth line.

Ersson will start for the eighth time in the last nine games on Thursday night in Toronto. The 24-year-old Errson is riding a three-game winning streak, allowing only five total goals in that span while posting a stellar .932 SV%. The Flyers, winners of four straight, are +139 road underdogs against a Maple Leafs club expected to welcome Mitch Marner and John Tavares back into the lineup from illness.

Grundstrom played only 3:43 time-on-ice before exiting Tuesday's 7-0 loss to the Buffalo Sabres with a lower-body injury. Before his injury, Grundstrom had one point (1G / 0A), eight shots, and 13 hits in his last three games.

Couturier becomes the Flyers' 20th captain in franchise history and the first since Claude Giroux was traded in the 2021-22 season. The 12-year-veteran has spent his entire career in Philadelphia, amassing 191 goals and 302 assists in 771 regular season games, and has been an alternate captain for the team since the 2019-20 season. The team also announced Travis Konecny and Scott Laughton will be the team's full-time alternate captains moving forward.

Deslauriers will be the odd-man out on Monday as the Flyers are opting to dress seven defensemen. Deslauriers has no goals and three assists in 46 games this season.

Zamula will re-enter the lineup after sitting out Saturday, and will presumably reclaim his role on the Flyers' first power-play unit. Zamula has five goals and ten assists in 42 games this season.

Ristolainen will sit for the second time in three games, this time due to an upper-body injury. Marc Staal will enter the lineup in his place.

Foerster is dealing with a lower-body injury and will sit out Monday's game against the Arizona Coyotes. He was spotted in a walking boot after Saturday's game against the Seattle Kraken. The 22-year-old Foerster has three goals and eight shots in his last four games while playing predominantly on a line with Ryan Poehling and Noah Cates.

Ersson had the night off on Saturday after starting six straight but will return to the crease on Monday night.

Ersson has quality starts in a respectable 64% of games and has a favourable matchup on Monday when his Flyers look to extend their three-game winning streak as -145 home favourites against an Arizona Coyotes club riding a five-game losing streak (0-4-1).
