EDGE Analysis
While the Flyers heads seem to be playing Mason's absence off as a maintenance day, multiple beat writers have speculated that there may be an underlying injury. Hakstol's unwillingness to name Mason the starter for Tuesday's game against the Kings could further suggest that's the case. While it's something to look out for, there's nothing beyond speculation at this point indicating that there is an issue.
