Poehling (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday.
Philadelphia recalled Rodrigo Abols from AHL Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move. Poehling missed Saturday's 3-1 win over New Jersey, and he won't be eligible to play against the Red Wings on Tuesday and the Rangers on Thursday after moving to the IR list. He has registered four goals, 15 points, 41 shots on net and 51 blocked shots through 43 appearances this season.

Poehling (upper body) won't return to Thursday's game versus the Islanders.
Poehling sustained the injury on a hit from Maxim Tsyplakov in the first period.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Goal, assist, four hits
Rotowire
Poehling had a goal, an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Ducks.
Poehling was one of several players who recorded multi-point efforts for the Flyers in this resounding win, and he snapped a four-game point drought in the process. The fourth-line center isn't known for his fantasy contributions, however, and he's racked up just five points (two goals, three assists) over his last 10 games. Don't expect him to be a sought-after fantasy option after this matchup, in which he recorded a multi-point effort for only the second time in 2024-25.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Scores in win Tuesday
Rotowire
Poehling scored a goal, took six shots and recorded a hit in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Sharks.
Poehling cracked the scoresheet for the second game in a row, the third time over the last four, and the fifth over his previous eight contests. The 25-year-old center has two goals and three assists in that span, and while the lack of consistency could be an issue for the first-line center, he's been productive in recent weeks -- especially since he went through a seven-game pointless streak between Nov. 29 and Dec. 12 right before this aforementioned eight-game stretch.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Sends helper Sunday
Rotowire
Poehling produced an assist in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Kings.
Poehling has a helper in two of the last three contests, and he has four points over his last seven games. The fourth-line center continues to stick in the lineup for his defensive skills. He's at 12 points, 47 blocked shots, 25 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 34 appearances this season. Poehling's lack of offense makes him a non-factor for most fantasy formats.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Deposits goal in loss
Rotowire
Poehling scored a goal in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Red Wings.
Poehling has a point in back-to-back games for the first time this year -- he also had an assist last Saturday against the Wild. The 25-year-old continues to center the fourth line, and that's not a role that's likely to generate consistent chances on offense. He has two goals, 10 points, 22 shots on net, 45 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 29 appearances as a defensive center.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Lends assist in loss
Rotowire
Poehling notched an assist in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Wild.
Poehling set up Travis Sanheim's third-period tally. The helper ended a seven-game slump for Poehling, who has been firmly in a fourth-line role for much of the season. The 25-year-old center is up to nine points, 21 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 28 appearances. He puts in a good defensive effort, but his responsibilities in his own zone limit his scoring output, and he's not an option for most fantasy formats.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Pots first goal of season
Rotowire
Poehling scored his first goal of the season in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.
The 25-year-old center used a partial screen from a Carolina defender to sneak a shot past Pyotr Kochetkov early in the second period. Poehling's checking-line role gives him little fantasy appeal, but he is on pace for a career-best season with seven points through 17 appearances.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Logs assist in loss
Rotowire
Poehling notched an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.
The defensive center got on the scoresheet for the first time in five games with this helper. Poehling's work rate in his own zone keeps him in the lineup, and he doesn't have to score to keep head coach John Tortorella happy. Poehling is at four helpers, six shots on net, six hits, 16 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through nine appearances in a bottom-six role.

Rotowire
Poehling logged an assist and blocked two shots in Friday's 3-2 shootout win over the Canucks.

The 25-year-old Poehling has a career year in 2023-24, putting up 28 points and 101 blocked shots over 77 regular-season contests. He's a defensive center who can help the Flyers' penalty kill, but he's unlikely to grow his offense enough to earn widespread fantasy interest.

Overall, the 25-year-old winger is up to six goals and 16 points this season, one shy of his career high, while holding down a bottom-six role in Philadelphia.
