Brown was absent from practice Monday due to a lower-body injury, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brown's absence will significantly stretch the already thin Flyers forward depth unless Claude Giroux and/or Travis Konecny are cleared from the league's COVID-19 protocols ahead of Tuesday's clash with Carolina. The 29-year-old Brown has already appeared in a career-high 20 contests this year, tallying one goal and three assists.
