Status Updates
The Flyers are coming off a 3-2 overtime victory against the Anaheim Ducks and will not conduct a morning skate prior to this game. Samuel Ersson will be in goal after Dan Vladar’s 34-save performance in Anaheim. Sean Couturier will miss the game due to an upper-body injury; Coach Rick Tocchet expressed hope that the injury is not serious. Additionally, the Flyers will face some decisions regarding their defense due to ongoing injury concerns.
For the Kings, Adrian Kempe did not skate during the morning session and may miss his second consecutive game. He was scratched before a recent game against the New York Rangers. If Kempe returns, he is expected to reclaim his spot on the first line alongside Anze Kopitar and Artemi Panarin. Joel Armia has begun non-contact skating but will miss his tenth straight game.
