As the results have gotten better on the ice for the Flyers, there have been plenty of Flyers being kept off the ice due to injury. For a brief period on Monday night, the team had Egor Zamula, Tyson Foerster, and Joel Farabee all leave the game, and leaving the Flyers with just 10 forwards and five defensemen.

Foerster and Farabee were able to return to the game, and Zamula is expected to be good to go when the Flyers get back on the ice on Wednesday night against the Carolina Hurricanes.

Game time is 7:30 p.m.

Tyson Foerster has scored in back-to-back games. Now up to four goals on the season and playing better of late, Foerster returning to his rookie form can only help the Flyers going forward.

Martin Necas has remained hot all season. The forward is up to 11 goals and 30 points this season, following a four-point game on Sunday against St. Louis. Necas had two points, including the game-winning goal in the final minute of regulation, against the Flyers on Nov. 5.
