The Philadelphia Flyers are facing a significant setback as defenseman Jamie Drysdale is expected to be sidelined long-term, according to a report from Sportsnet NHL insider Elliotte Friedman.

The team remains hopeful for his return this season, despite the severity of the injury.

Word on Jamie Drysdale is he's out week-to-week with the hope he will be able to return this season. Good luck to him, he's had enough injury trouble

Drysdale's injury occurred during last night's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, following a hard hit from Penguins forward Jansen Harkins. The impact forced Drysdale to leave the game prematurely.

This development is particularly disappointing for Drysdale, who has faced challenges with injuries throughout his young NHL career. His absence will undoubtedly be felt by the Flyers, who are fiercely competing for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.


As the Flyers strive to maintain their position in the Metropolitan Division standings, Drysdale's potential absence could pose a significant hurdle. The team remains optimistic for his recovery, hoping he can rejoin the lineup for crucial games in the near future.
