Seeler has missed the last three games while in COVID-19 protocol but will replace Egor Zamula in the lineup on Saturday. Seeler has been held pointless in 23 games with the Flyers this season.

Cates missed the last two games while in COVID-19 protocol but will replace Connor Bunnaman in the lineup on Saturday. Cates has scored one goal while averaging just 8:36 TOI/gm in four games with the Flyers this season.

Zamula has picked up three goals and 11 assists (14 points) in 25 AHL games this season and is expected to make his season debut on Thursday. Zamula will replace Travis Sanheim, who was placed on the COVID-19 protocol list.

The Flyers' COVID-19 protocol list continues to grow, as both Sanheim and Travis Konecny were added on Wednesday. They going Claude Giroux, Ivan Provorov, Nick Seeler and Jackson Cates--all will likely miss Thursday's game.

Couturier was the only active player added to the COVID-19 protocol list on Sunday but three more players joined him on Monday. The Flyers could get Kevin Hayes and Morgan Frost back ahead of Wednesday's game in Seattle, which would obviously help offset the loss of their No.1 centre.

The Panthers placed four new players in COVID-19 protocol on Sunday, the same day that they activated eight players from the list. With Tippett likely out until the middle of next week, Ryan Lomberg moved up into the top-9 in Monday's practice.

The Kings have a back-to-back on Saturday and Sunday, so there's a chance that Jonathan Quick will need to start both games.

The Red Wings added three more players and two coaches to the COVID-19 protocol list on Saturday, with Smith joining Carter Rowney and Alex Nedeljkovic.

Simmonds and Jason Spezza were the latest to be added to the COVID-19 protocol list, joining Alexander Kerfoot and John Tavares. Tonight they are scheduled to play in Vancouver, where the Canucks are currently missing five players due to protocol.


Cates has scored two goals with three assists (five points) in 18 AHL games this season. The 24-year-old made four NHL appearances last year and could make his season debut on Friday or Saturday.


Hathaway joins Trevor van Riemsdyk and Nic Dowd on the COVID-19 protocol list and will not be available for Monday's game vs. the Ducks. With Hathaway out, either Daniel Sprong or Michael Sgarbossa will draw into the lineup.
