Mike Yeo announced some surprising changes to the lineup for tonight's game

First of all, the team will play with 11 forwards and 7 defensemen. How will that work? Yeo told reporters that regular centers will play at center but we could see James Van Riemsdyk (yeah, you are reading that right) and Joel Farabee take some shifts at this position during the game.

Yeo also said that he's hopeful to see Scott Laughton and Nate Thompson back in the lineup at some point during the trip. The Flyers play in St. Louis on Thursday, before heading to Colorado to play the Avalanche on Friday. They will also face the Predators and the Wild on Sunday and Tuesday before heading back home.
