Flyers Place Tyson Foerster on IR, Recall Emil Andrae

Foerster’s lower-body injury from a blocked shot sidelines him at least seven days under IR rules.

Overview

  • The injured reserve placement is retroactive to Nov. 1, making Nov. 12 the earliest date he can be activated.
  • Coach Rick Tocchet said Foerster will miss a few games with a re-evaluation planned in three to four days.
  • The winger was hurt after blocking a shot in Toronto, and one report projected a 10–14 day absence that remains unconfirmed.
  • Philadelphia recalled defenseman Emil Andrae from AHL Lehigh Valley to fill the open roster spot.
  • Owen Tippett moves onto the Noah CatesBobby Brink line in Foerster’s place as captain Sean Couturier returned Sunday.
