Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Jamie Drysdale has been placed on the injured reserve list due to an upper-body injury, joining Ryan Ellis and Rasmus Ristolainen. Drysdale's absence has led to the call-up of Ronnie Attard from the AHL team. There is speculation that Travis Konecny may also be out for an extended period. The Flyers are making roster adjustments in response to the injuries, including recalling Felix Sandstrom from the AHL.
Ronnie Attard: "You only get so many chances, so I got to make the best of my chances and put my best foot forward." #Flyers
Ronnie Attard: "I think I've continued to grow each and every month. Just continuing to get better and make an impact." #Flyers

I really hope Ronnie Attard seizes this opportunity. You don't know how many shots you're going to get Good for Attard for sticking with it
Nice to see Attard get another shot. #Flyers https://t.co/eMmE9uSPF9

Flyers rotating defensemen today in rushes. Implies that maybe they'll be going back to 7 defensemen with Ronnie Attard called up. Guess they could sit Staal, but Attard has run some reps with Staal, so...
Transactions: We have placed defenseman Jamie Drysdale on Injured Reserve (upper body) & have recalled defenseman Ronnie Attard from the @LVPhantoms (AHL).

With Jamie Drysdale and Rasmus Ristolainen out week-to-week a call up was expected. Ronnie Attard gets the call — leading LVP defensemen in scoring (10), 2nd in assists (15) and in points (25) #OurValleyOurHome #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/7VuxrSxTtt
After giving up those 7 goals on Sunday, this isn't overly surprising. I'd guess we see Felix Sandstrom on Saturday against Ottawa in the second of the Flyers' back to back. https://t.co/jYUaqspbDM
Jamie Drysdale was placed on IR (Injured Reserve) earlier. I wonder if it was to make room for recalling Felix Sandström https://t.co/2ZSULzXpDB
The Flyers destroy Lightning during a power failure believe it or not, Jamie Drysdale placed on IR #Flyers #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/47ek6s1aYf
Flyers news: Jamie Drysdale placed on injured reserve (IR). This makes 3 players on IR now for the Flyers: Ryan Ellis, Jamie Drysdale, Rasmus Ristolainen I would think a call-up may transpire
Jamie Drysdale will miss weeks, but now there's concern that Travis Konecny could be out a little longer, too. https://t.co/1UKujAcQK9
