Matt Read will miss six weeks with torn rib cage muscles, according to GM Paul Holmgren. The good news he doesn't have a concussion, but the Flyers and fantasy owners alike won't take any solace in losing him for six weeks. Read was hurt on a hard hit from Pittsburgh's Chris Kunitz late in the first period Wednesday night. He is enjoying a strong sophomore season in 2013 with seven goals and 13 points in 18 games.
