Travis Konecny hasn’t played since February 7 after being put on the NHL’s COVID protocol list. The talented forward was one of many top players to be placed on the list, but Konecny is the last to return after getting back Jakub Voracek, Oskar Lindblom, and Claude Giroux. Konecny has missed the team’s past five games as well as the five games Philadelphia had postponed. He should be on a line with Connor Bunnaman and Michael Raffl and may get some powerplay time. Nicolas Aube-Kubel will be a healthy scratch. The soon-to-be 24-year-old has five goals and eight points in 12 games this season.
