Connauton (leg) left Tuesday's game versus the Maple Leafs in the third period, Sam Carchidi of Philly Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Connauton was hurt in the third period and didn't finish the game. With the Flyers thin on defense with injuries to Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body), Nick Seeler (lower body) and Cam York (lower body), they may need to recall a defenseman. Per Carchidi, Connauton is expected to miss time, which likely rules him out for Thursday's game versus the Canadiens at a minimum.

Connauton picked up his first goal of the campaign in Thursday's win over Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
Connauton has one goal an two assists in 33 appearances this season, however all three points were scored in his past five outings. Don't expect him to be able to continue the scoring outburst for much longer though, as he's averaging 12:18 per game on the third pairing with no power-play time.
