Flyers recall F Roman Lyubimov from Phantoms

Share

Just a day after sending him down, the Flyers have recalled forward Roman Lyubimov from the Phantoms. By sending Lyubimov to the AHL, the team saved one day of Lyubimov's salary against the cap, according to CSNPhilly.com's Tim Panaccio. 

The 24-year-old rookie has played well, despite just one goal in 11 games while playing on the team's fourth line. With the addition of Lyubimov, the Flyers now have one extra forward.

On Wednesday, head coach Dave Hakstol hinted at Nick Cousins' return to the lineup Friday at Toronto, making Lyubimov — who has been scratched three times this season — a healthy scratch candidate.
