Flyers' Brandon Manning: Ready to return Thursday
Manning (shoulder) will return to Philadelphia's lineup for Thursday's game against Minnesota, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis:
Manning's return to action will bolster the Flyers' blue-line depth, but it won't impact many fantasy owners' lineups, as the 26-year-old's lack of offensive production -- 10 points in 57 games this campaign -- makes him an impractical option in most formats. He's expected to skate alongside Radko Gudas on the second pairing.
