Konecny scored a shorthanded goal in Saturday's 1-0 win over New Jersey.
Konecny has an NHL-best six shorthanded goals this season. It's the highest total in an NHL season since Michael Grabner did it in 2018-19. He was cheating a bit on the play and got lucky when Nick Seeler poked the puck into the neutral zone. Scott Laughton backhanded a pass to Konecny, who broke in alone and wired a wrist shot from the slot past Kaapo Kahkonen for the lone tally of the contest. It was also Konecny's 400th point in the NHL.

Konecny's six-game absence will come to a close, and he'll take Olle Lycksell's spot in the lineup. The 26-year-old Konecny had five goals and seven assists over the seven contests before he was out of action, so he should be a big boost to the Flyers' offense against a formidable opponent.

Head coach John Tortorella told reporters Tuesday that he is unsure when Konecny (upper body) will be available again, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
That's an ominous statement from the notoriously tight-lipped bench boss.

Flyers' Travis Konecny: Will not play Saturday
Rotowire
Konecny (upper body) will not play Saturday against the Rangers after he was hurt at Friday's practice.
Konecny's injury is considered minor, so his status for Sunday's tilt in Pittsburgh is still to be determined. He has 27 goals and 54 points in 57 contests this season. Konecny will be replaced in the lineup by Tyson Foerster, who returns to action after missing four games with a lower-body injury.
Konecny exited Friday's practice because of an undisclosed injury, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Konecny got off the ice under his own power, but he seemed to be in discomfort and didn't rejoin his teammates for the remainder of practice. There was no update on his status after the skate, so it's hard to know what his chances are of playing Saturday versus the Rangers. If Konecny and Tyson Foerster (lower body) are both unavailable, then Philadelphia will likely need to call up a forward, possibly Olle Lycksell, who was returned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday.
Konecny scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-3 overtime loss to Toronto on Thursday.
Konecny took a chip pass from Owen Tippett in a net-front scramble and shot the puck past a sprawling Ilya Samsonov on a third period power play that tied the game at 3-3 and forced overtime. Konecny's point streak stands at five games and nine points (four goals, five assists). And with 51 points in 55 games, he is tracking toward a new career mark this season. He has put up 61 points twice in his career, including last season (31 goals, 30 assists in 60 games).
