Poehling has signed a two-year, $3.8 million contract extension ($1,900,000).
The Flyers completed their second signing of the day Friday as they extended 25-year-old centre Ryan Poehling for two-years, and $3.8 million ($1,900,000 AAV). The fourth year pro is having a career year in his first season in Philadelphia with five goals, nine assists, 55 SOG, six PIMs and a -8 plus/minus through 44 games played.
Greer (anke) is expected to miss a considerable amount of time.
Greer suffered an ankle injury in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, exiting the game after playing only 5:34 time-on-ice. Greer has 10 points (6G / 4A) in 47 games this season while most recently playing on a line with Cole Schwindt and Adam Klapka.
Husso (lower body) has been activated from the Injured Reserve and loaned to Grand Rapids (AHL) for conditioning.
Husso has not played since December 18th, when he suffered a lower-body injury, and, as a result, has been loaned to the Grand Rapids Griffins of the AHL for a conditioning stint before returning to the Red Wings. Husso, sporting a 3.53 GAA and .893 SV% through 18 games (9-5-2-), will likely serve as the backup to Alex Lyon upon his return.
Goalie Start
Brossoit will start Wednesday vs. Toronto.
After serving as the backup for four straight games (2-2-0), Brossoit will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Brossoit has been tremendous between the pipes for the Jets lately, allowing two or fewer goals in six straight (5-1-0), boasting a dazzling .952 SV%.
Goalie Start
Dostal will start Sunday vs. New York.
Dostal allowed five goals on 41 shots in the Ducks’ loss in Tampa last Saturday. John Gibson has started the last three games but Dostal will make his 18th appearance tonight vs. the Rangers. Dostal has played much better in Anaheim this season, posting a 2.99 GAA and .918 SV% in seven games, however it’s led to just two wins.
Granlund (shoulder) has been placed on the Injured Reserve as he is out week-to-week.
Killorn (arthroscopic knee surgery) is expected to miss 4-6 weeks.
Hamblin has been reassigned to Bakersfield (AHL).
Granlund (upper body) will avoid surgery but is out week-to-week.
Granlund suffered a significant upper-body injury, and although he will not need surgery, he is expected to be out on a week-to-week basis. With 29 points (5G / 24A) in 38 games, Granlund was pacing for his second-best point output in the last six seasons.
Carlsson (lower-body) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play on Monday.
Carlsson has not played since December 21st but is expected to make his return to the lineup on Monday afternoon against the Florida Panthers. The 2023 second-overall pick has eight goals and seven assists through the first 23 games of his rookie season.
Goalie Start
Dostal will start Saturday in Tampa.
Mintyukov is expected to miss six weeks with a separated shoulder.
Mintyukov's injury wasn't the only piece of bad news the Ducks were handed on Thursday, with the team also announcing Trevor Zegras would miss six to eight weeks with a broken ankle. The updated timeline for Mintyukov has him on track to return near the end of February. The 2022 tenth-overall pick was off to a fine start in his rookie campaign, compiling two goals and 17 assists across 40 games.
Goalie Start
Brossoit will start Thursday vs. Chicago.
Brossoit will start on Thursday for a Jets team that is among the league's best over the last month and is riding a seven-game winning streak. Brossoit and the Jets have a favourable matchup as enormous -409 home favourites against a Chicago Blackhawks team that defeated them 2-1 on December 27th, their only loss in their last 10 games. The Jets' crease has belonged to Hellebuyck, but Brossoit has been terrific lately when called upon, allowing two or fewer goals in each of his last five starts (4-1-0), posting a gaudy .952 SV%.
Mintyukov (undisclosed) left Tuesday's game early and was not at practice Wednesday.
Mintyukov left the Ducks' game Tuesday after 12:53 TOI due to an undisclosed injury and did not practice Wednesday. The 20-year-old rookie standout is without a timetable to return as the Ducks' have provided little updates with Anaheim on an off day Wednesday. He has excelled in the first 40 games of his career, with two goals, 17 assists, 60 SOG, 16 PIMs and a -11 plus/minus.
Carlsson (knee) skated in full at practice Tuesday for the first time since his injury but is without a timetable to return.
Carlsson seems to be ahead of his original four-to-six-week prognosis after suffering a sprained right MCL in an awkward collision with Mackenzie Weegar of the Calgary Flames in late December. The 2023 second-overall pick has eight goals and seven assists through the first 23 games of his rookie season.
Goalie Start
Dostal will start in Nashville on Tuesday.
Dostal will get the nod in back-to-back for the first time since December 23rd as he will be between the pipes when Anaheim travel to Nashville on Tuesday. Dostal took the loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 28 shots enroute to a 3-2 defeat at the hands of the Red Wings on Sunday. His record on the season sits at 6-9-1 to go along with a .901 SV% and 3.50 GAA. He'll have his hands full on Tuesday with Anaheim being +190 underdogs in Nashville.
