Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny<\/a> missed the team\u2019s game Saturday as the result of an upper-body injury he suffered Jan. 8 against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Earlier today, he was on the ice for practice, a development that was, temporarily, a good sign for his availability moving forward. But the Philadelphia Inquirer\u2019s Jackie Spiegel reported<\/a> shortly afterward that Konecny left practice with an injury, and added that he \u201cseemed to have trouble walking to the room.\u201d<\/p>\n

While there\u2019s no official update from the Flyers on Konecny\u2019s status, this reporting from their practice does cast into doubt Konecny\u2019s likelihood of being available for the team\u2019s game tomorrow against the Lightning. Any significant injury to Konecny would deal a massive blow to the Flyers\u2019 competitive hopes. The 28-year-old\u2019s 38 points in 42 games ranks second on the team behind Trevor Zegras<\/a>, and his efforts have helped the Flyers amass a 22-13-8 record a little over halfway through the season. The hope, obviously, will be that Konecny\u2019s injury scare today ends up being only something minor.<\/p>\n

Other notes from the Metropolitan Division:<\/p>\n

The Flyers told reporters today that winger Carl Grundstrom<\/a> missed practice with an illness, and that his availability for tomorrow\u2019s game is questionable. Grundstrom has had a hot start to his time in Philadelphia, scoring seven goals and eight points in 17 games. Acquired as part of the trade involving Ryan Ellis\u2019 contract in early October, Grundstrom worked his way onto the Flyers\u2019 NHL roster with strong AHL performances and looks to have a firm grip on an NHL lineup spot thanks to his goal-scoring streak. A pending UFA making $1.8MM this season, Grundstrom has likely aided his upcoming free agent fortunes considerably in his brief stint so far with the Flyers.
\nWashington Capitals winger Tom Wilson<\/a>, who remains out with a lower-body injury, skated in the team\u2019s practice today with a non-contact jersey, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post<\/a>. Consequently, Wilson is not expected to be available for Washington\u2019s game against the Predators tonight. Wilson hasn\u2019t played since Jan. 5 due to his injury, missing three games. The 31-year-old has 42 points in 41 games this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny missed the team\u2019s game Saturday as the result of an upper-body injury he…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":403688,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[377],"tags":[8869,5,56,280,731,109],"class_list":["post-403687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hockey","tag-carl-grundstrom","tag-hockey","tag-philadelphia-flyers","tag-tom-wilson","tag-travis-konecny","tag-washington-capitals"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/115883201336656701","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/403687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=403687"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/403687\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/403688"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=403687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=403687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=403687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
