Flyers' Nate Thompson: Sidelined with lower-body issue

Thompson (lower body) won't be available for Wednesday's game versus the Rangers.

The Flyers are dealing with a bunch of injuries up front, so they may need to roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen against New York. Another update on Thompson, who's picked up three points through 25 contests this season, should surface once he's cleared to rejoin the lineup.
