Flyers' Carter Hart: Dealing with injury

Hart is suffering from back spasms and won't play in Friday's game against the Bruins, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.

Brian Elliott has already been named the starter, and Alex Lyon was recalled on an emergency basis to serve as the backup. The team may reveal more about Hart's timeline to return following Friday's game. It's been a turbulent season for the 22-year-old, as he sports an .898 save percentage and a 4-2-2 record thus far.
