Poehling suffered an upper-body injury in Philadelphia on Sunday and is expected to miss an extended period of time. Mathieu Perreault will likely draw into the Canadiens lineup to replace Poehling on Tuesday.

Ristolainen was a pending UFA, who has scored two goals with 11 assists (13 points), 177 hits and 90 blocked shots in 49 games with the Flyers this season. Ristolainen was acquired from the Sabres in July, sending a first-round pick, second-round pick and Robert Hagg the other way.

Ristolainen missed the last three games with an upper-body injury but will play on Monday afternoon. Prior to getting hurt, Ristolainen had just three points (1G / 2A) while averaging 20:47 TOI/gm in his last 14 games.

Ristolainen is a little "banged up" after Wednesday's game, so he'll come out of the lineup on Saturday afternoon. Kevin Connauton will draw into the lineup to replace him.

Couturier has been sidelined since December 18th and with the Flyers pretty far off of the pace, they've elected to shut Couturier down for the rest of the season. He finishes with six goals and 11 assists (17 points) in 29 games. According to Flyers' GM Chuck Fletcher, Couturier will need three months to recover and will healthy to start the 2022-23 season.

Simmonds stayed back in Toronto on Wednesday to be with his wife for the birth of their child. The Maple Leafs said there was a possibility he would join the team in Calgary and play, but Jake Muzzin will dress as a seventh defenseman to replace him.
