Tyler Hore good to go

Matt Petgrave, Lucas Lessio and Hunter Smith aren't projected back until late January at the earliest, coach DJ Smith reported.

According to Twitter, looks like Chris Carlisle and Adam Lloyd are out indefinitely with injuries...

More injuries...... Really

Hore and Petgrave could both play tonight.

Carlisle and Smith this weekend.

Lessio by months end maybe.

Anything on Llyod is he longterm or is he already back?

I heard Petgrave is back tonite as is Hunter Smith..

Lessio as early as next week...getting close

Carlisle and Lloyd still at least a week away

paper said weekend for Smith and Carlisle hopefully, either way good news that things are healing on all fronts

according to his twitter Lloyds brace is off, at least at night...

Thaats good we are getting some of our players back. Anybody know when laughton and jenner will be leaving for camp. Im pretty sure both will be back, but we will lose them for a week or so.

I believe NHL camps start on Sunday. I think they're still waiting for the CBA to be officially signed. If that's the case is expect them o leave Saturday maybe.

I expect them to leave tomorrow, because I assume the NHL can't call them down until the cba is ratified. There team mates will be unofficially practicing between now and Sunday and I can see most NHL teams trying to get there guys into the city asap.

I also heard some teams are aiming for Saturday, and I could see some trying to do physicals friday even.

Sounding like Laughton will be attending training camp, although that is the exact opposite of what the Flyers originally had said.

Saw on Twitter by a philly writer that his nameplate is in the locker room. So pretty sure he is attending.

From what I read, nothing can happen with invites or anything physicals, etc. until after the deal is radified. Players don't vote until Thursday Friday with the results coming out on Saturday. I agree that the players will head out early and practice with the players who are renting the ice. But no team stuff can be done at all. I also read tweets, reporter blogs, etc. that said both Jenner and Laughton will be brought to camp and will play a few NHL games before a decision is made. In the new CBA for THIS YEAR ONLY, the max a junior player can play is 6, it goes back to 10 next year. 6 meaning that they can play 5 and be sent back, if they play 6, it counts as a year of their contract.

It would make very little sense for the Flyers to use Laughton for any games, each game is twice as important this year, and treating the first 5 games as preseason to me is crazy.

I am just telling you what the blog of the reporter said....I will find it again and post the link

Here is part of the story and the link...

From the start of the story.........

In talking with people in the organization who have watched Laughton play at Oshawa in the OHL this season, they are really impressed with his game and they think he could be NHL ready right now.

With that said, I think Laughton, the Flyers first round pick in last year's draft, has a shot to not only be at camp, but, much like Couturier last season, win a job on the team. People have asked me for a roster surprise, well, that's it in my opinion. Laughton makes the team.
