Flyers lose Konecny for 4-6 weeks due to injury

Philadelphia Flyers forward Travis Konecny will miss the next four-to-six weeks after suffering a lower-body injury against the St. Louis Blues on Monday night, the team announced.

The injury was suffered in the second period of Philadelphia's 2-0 loss when Konecny took an awkward spill into the end boards.

Konecny has put forth a respectable first season in the NHL, posting seven goals and 22 points in 51 games, good for fifth in team scoring and tied for 13th among all first-year players.
