Coburn (lower body) is expected to return to the lineup Saturday against the Avalanche, Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Coburn was initially projected to be out for four weeks after suffering a setback in late October, but a Saturday return would mean the defenseman missed only two weeks of action. His return would likely bump Carlo Colaiacovo from the Flyers' regular lineup.
