Flyers' Voracek will not play vs. Coyotes, to be evaluated Monday

Sergei Belski-USA TODAY Sports

Jakub Voracek will skip Saturday's game against the Coyotes due to a lower-body injury.

Analysis:

It's unclear exactly when the injury surfaced, but the Flyers will be without their top assist man for at least Saturday's game. Who will step into the role also remains a bit of a mystery as well, but the potential return of captain Claude Giroux would at least provide a little more stability in the top-six, and may limit the changes needed. Voracek will be re-evaluated Monday, so expect another update on his status when that occurs.
