Earlier this season, the Philadelphia Flyers made a noteworthy trade by acquiring defenseman Jamie Drysdale from the Anaheim Ducks, along with a second-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, in exchange for Cutter Gauthier.
However, Drysdale has encountered a significant setback. The Flyers announced today that he's being placed on Long Term Injured Reserve, sidelining him from action for the foreseeable future.
His health status was described as "week to week" after he took a heavy hit from Pittsburgh's Jansen Harkins over the weekend.
This setback comes at a crucial point in the season for the Flyers, posing a challenge for the team as they navigate through upcoming games.
