Travis Sanheim is rejoining the Flyers under “emergency conditions’’.
The emergency presumably is the continued unavailability of Johnny Oduya, who was injured in the first period of the first game he played with the Flyers after being claimed from Ottawa on waivers.
It also means that another Flyers defenseman will be unavailable when the Flyers host the Winnipeg Jets Saturday afternoon at the Wells Fargo Center. Andrew MacDonald held his head and was slow to get to his feet after a collision along the back boards during the second period, but finished the game. Brandon Manning seems to be dealing with some type of lower body injury as well.
