Coburn (lower body) is expected to return to the lineup Saturday against the Stars, Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Analysis:

Coburn was back on the ice for Wednesday's practice, mixing in with regular pairing partner Andrew MacDonald during the session. His return would offer a helpful upgrade to the team's blue line, but perhaps not a significant enough one to remedy the Flyers' 0-2-2 start to the campaign.
