Couturier will not play Thursday night against the Penguins due to a lower-body injury, Dave Isaac of the Courier-Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is an unfortunate turn of events for the Flyers as Couturier has been known to frustrate Evgeni Malkin and the Pens with his agitating style of defense. Couturier is also above average when it comes to offense, having contributed nine goals and 13 assists in 38 games. It's possible that center Jordan Weal, acquired from the Kings on Jan. 6, could take Couturier's spot in the lineup Thursday.
