Konecny (lower-body) is day-to-day and will not play this weekend.
Goalie Start
Vladar will start Saturday in Boston.
Grundstrom will be a healthy scratch in Ottawa on Thursday.
With the newly acquired Michael Bunting making his Flyers' debut on Thursday, Grundstrom will be the odd man out of the lineup as a healthy scratch. The 28-year-old Grundstrom is averaging 11:07 time-on-ice, recording zero points and 13 hits in four games.
Bunting will make his Flyers’ debut on Thursday in Ottawa.
The Dallas Stars acquired Michael Bunting at last season's trade deadline, but he couldn't stay in the lineup and was often a healthy scratch in the postseason. He has since struggled to find a new NHL home, but he has agreed to a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Flyers. Bunting scored 33 points (14G / 19A) in 74 games between the Stars and the Pittsburgh Penguins. He will make his Flyers' debut on Thursday, replacing Carl Grundstrom.
Goalie Start
Woll will start in Ottawa on Thursday.
Joseph Woll has clearly outplayed Dan Vladar as the 2026-27 season begins and could earn more playing time if he keeps impressing. The 28-year-old Woll has saved 78 of 84 shots (.929 SV%) in two games this season, going 0-0-2 for a Flyers team that has been offensively miserable, scoring only five combined goals in four games (0-2-2). The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as +155 road underdogs against a 2-1-0 Ottawa Senators team.

Ristolainen (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups and will not play Monday in Tampa.
Grebenkin (upper-body) has been placed on injured reserve.
Grebenkin was a regular in Philadelphia's bottom-six last season, but his 2026-27 debut will have to wait a while longer after being placed on Injured Reserve. The 23-year-old forward recorded 14 points (4G / 10A) and 86 hits in 55 games last season. In a corresponding move, Denver Barkey has been activated from IR.
Barkey (lower-body) will make his season debut in Tampa Bay on Monday.
Barkey was injured early in the preseason and has been sidelined since, missing Philadelphia's first three games, but he will make his debut on Monday. The 21-year-old Barkey made his NHL debut last season, scoring 17 points (5G / 12A) in 43 games and is expected to be entrusted with a larger role in 2026-27.
Ristolainen (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision in Tampa Bay on Monday.
Ristolainen exited Saturday's game due to an undisclosed injury, and his status remains uncertain for Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 31-year-old Finnish defenseman missed significant time last season with a ruptured right triceps tendon and played just 44 games, averaging 21:23 time on ice and scoring 14 points (1G / 13A).
Goalie Start
Vladar will start in Tampa Bay on Monday.
Vladar had a miserable season-opening performance, allowing seven goals on 38 shots (.816 SV%) in a 7-0 blowout loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins, which led to Joseph Woll starting the Flyers' next two games. Woll played exceptionally in his two outings (2-0-0), but Vladar, coming off a terrific 2025-26 season that led the Flyers to the postseason, will get every chance to succeed early. The 29-year-old Vladar returns to the crease on Monday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, with Philadelphia entering the action as +191 road underdogs.
Ristolainen (undisclosed) left Saturday's game and will not return.
Benoit will be a healthy scratch on Saturday.
Jiricek will draw into the lineup on Saturday.

Goalie Start
Woll will start in New Jersey on Thursday.
A night after being pummeled 7-0 in their season opener against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Flyers will likely change things up between the pipes, turning to newcomer Joseph Woll for his team debut. The 28-year-old Woll spent the first few seasons of his NHL career with the Toronto Maple Leafs, but they parted ways after a disappointing 2025-26 campaign, posting a 3.34 GAA and .898 SV% in 39 outings (15-16-7). The Flyers hope to rebound on Thursday, entering the action as +149 road underdogs against the New Jersey Devils.
