The Philadelphia Flyers are getting arguably the best defensive forward in the NHL back in the fold with their season on the line.
Sean Couturier is in the lineup for Game 7 of the Flyers' second-round series against the New York Islanders.
Couturier sat out Game 6 after colliding knee-on-knee with Islanders forward Mathew Barzal in the previous game.
The 27-year-old is a finalist for the Selke Trophy, awarded annually to the NHL's top defensive forward.
