Philadelphia Flyers forward Nolan Patrick remains week-to-week as he recovers from a migraine disorder, general manager Chuck Fletcher said Thursday.
"There's no change in his status," Fletcher said, according to Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia. "We just continue to work with him and hope that he continues to improve."
Patrick was diagnosed with the disorder in late September and has yet to play this season.
"We're hopeful. It's a tough situation," Fletcher added when asked if he believes Patrick will play in 2019-20. "I can't predict what will happen."
The 21-year-old has recorded 26 goals and 61 points over 145 games since being taken second overall by the Flyers in 2017.
