Flyers have 2020-21 season-opening lineup, but Shayne Gostisbehere still out

VOORHEES, N.J. — It sure looks like the Flyers have decided on their 13th forward and lineup for Wednesday night's regular-season opener against the Penguins.

On Tuesday at Virtua Center Flyers Skate Zone, the club had 23 players on the practice ice. The Flyers have to submit their 23-player roster and taxi squad of four to six players by 5 p.m. ET Tuesday.

Morgan Frost was one of the 23 players and he was wearing a white jersey, an indication that the 21-year-old center will be the club's 13th forward to open the 2020-21 season. The other 22 players had on either an orange or black jersey.

Shayne Gostisbehere did not practice. He was out last Saturday and Sunday, listed as "unfit to play."

The Flyers on Monday placed Samuel Morin, Chris Bigras, Andy Andreoff, Tyler Wotherspoon, Alex Lyon, Nate Prosser and Derrick Pouliot on waivers. Those seven players cleared waivers Tuesday at noon ET.

Prosser practiced Tuesday but the Flyers won't carry him on the roster to open the season.

Alain Vigneault said technically they're still in training camp so he can't disclose anything on Shayne Gostisbehere. He said Ghost won't be available Wednesday.
