Dave Hakstol is at it again. With news breaking Tuesday afternoon that Philadelphia Flyers forward Michael Raffl with be out for about 4-6 weeks with a lower-body injury, Hakstol had a spot in the lineup to fill.
Based on the line rushes in Wednesday morning’s practice, it seems that Corban Knight will take Raffl’s position on the foruth line and Mikhail Vorobyev will enter the lineup for either Oskar Lindblom or Jordan Weal. It’s good to see Vorobyev back in the lineup, but not at the expense of Weal or especially Lindblom.
