Three options for the Flyers if Sean Couturier is out of the lineup for Game 6

It was yet another heart-stopping, chest-thumping, gritty-yet-thrilling overtime victory for the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night. In a moment of déjà vu, the Flyers troublingly surrendered a 3-1 lead in the third period, only to cut off the Islanders in the extra frame thanks nonetheless to big saves from Carter Hart and some good forechecking from the top three lines.

However, as we all know, a very important player was absent from the Flyers’ disastrous third period: Sean Couturier. It appears to be that his absence was due to a knee-on-knee collision with the Islanders’ Mathew Barzal.
