Michael Raffl Promoted To Top Line For Flyers Versus Hurricanes
7 years agoPhiladelphia Flyers forward Michael Raffl will take Travis Konecny's spot on the top line with Claude Giroux and Sean Couturier ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Carolina Hurricanes. Raffl recently missed six games with an upper-body injury but returned to the lineup on April 3rd. While it's unknown why the Flyers would move Konecny and his 24 goals to the third line, this does give Raffl a chance to be fantasy relevant in a category other than hits. He's a cheap gamble in daily lineups, though we wouldn't suggest grabbing him to close out your fantasy playoffs.
