With Claude Giroux sidelined indefinitely with a concussion, rookie Sean Couturier will assume top-line responsibilities.
A very talented player in his own right, Couturier will center the top line with Jaromir Jagr and Scott Hartnell on the flanks. The 19-year-old has played all 28 games for the Flyers and is 5-3-8 and plus-8 with an average ice time of 12:47, a figure that will certainly get a bump starting tonight in Washington.
