Wayne Simmonds notched a goal but it wasn't enough in the Flyers' 5-3 loss to the Devils on Friday night.

Simmonds is really blossoming into a fine fantasy player, with eight points and 27 penalty minutes in 12 games. Mike Knuble and Matt Read each had the other guys, while Kurtis Foster, Brayden Schenn and Ruslan Fedotenko had assists.

Wayne Simmonds gave the Flyers a 1-0 lead 40 seconds into the first, but they went on to suffer a 5-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Tye McGinn wouldn't score Philadelphia's second goal until 19:28 of the third period and by then the deficit was already to much to overcome. The Flyers have struggled out of the gate with a 5-7-1 start, good for 11th in the East.

Wayne Simmonds (concussion) says he feels 'fine' but the decision on when he returns is up to coach Peter Laviolette.

Simmonds didn't play Thursday and GM Paul Holmgren said Simmonds didn't "feel quite right." As we said yesterday, therein lies the problems with concussions. Despite the player saying he's fine, the team must be 100-percent confident he's recovered before sending him back out there. The Flyers' next game is Saturday so Simmonds owners will have to wait for word after tomorrow's morning skate.
