Flyers Head Coach John Tortorella Reveals Lineup Updates and Marc Staal's Injury

Philadelphia Flyers' head coach, John Tortorella, recently shared some important lineup updates and injury concerns for the team. The most significant news is the absence of veteran defenseman Marc Staal, who will be sidelined for an estimated amount of 4-6 "weeks" due to a rib injury. Staal, acquired during the off-season, plays a pivotal role in developing the Flyers' young talent and providing stability on the blue line.
Morgan Frost remains out of the lineup, with his return date still uncertain. In the absence of Carter Hart, who is taking a night off, Sam Ersson will start in the net for the Flyers, and he'll have Felix Sandstrom as his backup.
Tortorella's updates bring some concerns for the Flyers, especially regarding the absence of Marc Staal. It will be crucial for the team to adapt and maintain their performance during Staal's absence. The Flyers will need to rely on their depth and young talent to fill the void left by the experienced defenseman.
