Soooo Brayden Schenn is back on the ice this morning.
Schenn last played for the Flyers on October 26th and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks. His return to the ice and participation in line rushes is a good indication of his speedy recovery.

Clutterbuck returns to lineup tonight
Clutterbuck will play on the third line. In leagues that count hits, he is certainly a must-start forward.
Cal Clutterbuck sat out Tuesday’s game with an upper body injury. His status improved yesterday, but he is still considered questionable:
Clutterbuck is likely a game-time decision. With improvement he's probably leaning towards 60/40.
Line Change

Palmieri moves to the top line after toiling on checking lines for a few games. The Utica, New York native scored a goal and four points over his first 13 games.
Clutterbuck better today, could possibly play tomorrow for #mnwild vs @sanjosesharks
Clutterbuck was too banged up to play yesterday but is likely for tomorrow. Through 13 games he has two goals scored.
Schenn is out about two more weeks.
If you own Schenn, check back in a few weeks for his return date. Schenn only played four games in which he registered no points and a minus-5 rating. He may be due for some more growing pains as he acclimates to the NHL.
