The Philadelphia Flyers are on a three game losing streak and head coach John Tortorella states ''We need more goals, more shots, more everything from our offense'', which Flyers fans can surely agree on. Tortorella has decided to shake up the Flyers forward combinations for tonight's matchup against the Columbus Blue Jackets, who handed the Flyers their first win to this losing streak.
Forward line 1, the ''money line'' consisting of two of the top Flyers point scorers, Hayes and Konecny, alongside Owen Tippett who has recently proved to have found his confidence, this line should standout greatly.
Tippett-Hayes-Konecny
Forward line 2, a line in question.. Joel Farabee was removed off the top line and replaced with forward Owen Tippett, Scott Laughton on the Flyers wing will be interesting to see, with two centermen (Laughts and Cates) on the same line, this line should perform a well two-way game.

Forward line 3, another line in question. With the saddened lost of Wade Allison due to an injury, Max Willman got the call up and will be playing hard to show Tortorella he deserves a full-time roster spot. Morgan Frost on the other hand is nearly experiencing the opposite and has been benched this season due to poor performances. Zac MacEwen, one of the league-leading hitters of the year will spark momentum for this line.
