Michael Raffl out with an upper-body injury

According to the team’s website, Flyers’ forward Michael Raffl will miss the next two weeks with a classic case of the upper-body injury. He’s anticipated to miss the next five games, but based on the timeline for his return he may return for the Orange and Black’s contest against the Boston Bruins on April 1st.

Raffl was injured in Sunday’s win over the Washington Capitals, as he only played 6:40 and didn’t take a shift in the third period. It’s not clear when or what the Austrian forward injured, as his last shift (with 6:17 to 5:14 left in the second period) was rather uneventful and didn’t provide a clear play to point to where the injury would have taken place.
