Injury sidelines Flyers' Del Zotto against Ducks

ANAHEIM, Calif. - Defenseman Michael Del Zotto was sidelined by an undisclosed upper-body injury Sunday in Anaheim, and Brandon Manning took his place in the Flyers' lineup.

The injury is not believed to be severe, and Del Zotto is listed as day-to-day.

Del Zotto, who has eight points and a minus-8 rating in 34 games, had been paired with Evgeny Medvedev lately.

Manning had been a healthy scratch the previous two games. He entered the night with three points and a plus-2 rating in 26 games.

"Brandon is always prepared," coach Dave Hakstol said before the game.
