The Philadelphia Flyers placed leading scorer Travis Konecny on injured reserve Saturday and recalled fellow forward Elliot Desnoyers from Lehigh Valley of the American Hockey League.
Konecny has sat out the Flyers’ last two games due to an upper-body injury he sustained in Monday’s 4-3 victory over the Calgary Flames. He collected a goal and an assist before exiting the contest in the second period after being shoved into the boards from behind by Calgary defenseman MacKenzie Weegar.
