Foerster scored a shorthanded goal on three shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Ducks.
Foerster ended a seven-game point drought with the tally. He also missed a game due to a hand issue during the slump. The Flyers have struggled as a whole this year, and it's partly because of slow starts for middle-six players like Foerster. The 24-year-old winger has two goals, 28 shots on net, 19 hits, 10 PIM, eight blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 12 appearances on the year.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Game-time call
Rotowire
Foerster (hand) will be a game-time decision ahead of Wednesday's clash with Buffalo, Jackie Spiegel of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Foerster got some work in with the Flyers during the morning skate, but he wasn't a full participant, raising doubts regarding his availability Wednesday. The 24-year-old winger is currently mired in a six-game pointless streak and has just one goal in 10 games to start the year. After being limited to just 29 regular-season games last year, there was some hope Foerseter would get back to being a 40-point producer, but that mark could be hard to hit if he doesn't start racking up points soon.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Not playing Monday
Rotowire
Foerster (hand) will not suit up at home against the Avalanche on Monday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Foerster will miss his first game of the as a result of blocking a shot with his hand in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Senators. The Flyers are missing several key forwards, so they will be extremely hard-pressed to come out with a win against the high-flying Avalanche. Philadelphia's next game is in Buffalo on Wednesday.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Questionable for Monday
Rotowire
Foerster is questionable for Monday's game against Colorado due to a hand injury, per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
Foerster sustained the injury when he blocked a shot during Saturday's 3-1 win over Ottawa. He was able to complete that game, but he then missed Sunday's practice. The status of Sean Couturier (undisclosed) and Owen Tippett (upper body) is also unclear heading into Monday's action, so Philadelphia might need to call up at least one forward from the minors.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Signs long-term extension
Rotowire
Foerster signed an eight-year, $56.8 million contract extension with Philadelphia on Wednesday.
Foerster was limited to a mere 29 regular-season games in 2025-26 due to injury. Despite the lack of games, the 24-year-old Ontario native still produced 13 goals and four assists, including four power-play points. However, he failed to produce in the playoffs with just one point in 10 tilts. Still, this deal, which will begin in the 2027-28 campaign, figures to keep Foerster as a key member of the Flyers' top six for the long haul.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Nets first NHL playoff goal
Rotowire
Foerster scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Carolina in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference second round.
It was his first career NHL playoff goal (10 games). Foerster and the Flyers scored just five goals in the four-game sweep by the Canes. This postseason was a valuable experience for the inexperienced orange and black. Watch for the pride of Alliston, Ontario to be healthy and ready to take his goal scoring to the next level in 2026-27. Foerster had 13 in just 29 regular-season games in 2025-26, but 25 in 81 the year before.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Lights lamp twice in big win
Rotowire
Foerster scored two goals in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Devils.
Both tallies came in the second period as the Flyers blew open a 2-1 game.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Scores in return from arm injury
Rotowire
Foerster scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Foerster was initially injured Dec. 1, and he was given a five-month timeline to return after undergoing surgery Dec. 15. He returned faster than expected and was able to play 16:19 in his first game back, scoring the Flyers' first goal just 31 ticks into the second period. Injuries have made this a bit of a lost year for the winger, but he's still amassed 11 goals, 14 points, 45 shots on net, 22 hits, 18 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 22 outings. Foerster will be a candidate for top-six minutes and power-play time while the Flyers try to pull off a long-shot attempt at making the playoffs.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Expected to miss five months
Rotowire
The Flyers announced Wednesday that Foerster underwent successful surgery on his arm Monday and is expected to miss approximately five months.
Foerster was diagnosed with an upper-body injury in early December, and he initially had a return timetable of 2-3 months when he was placed on injured reserve. However, he's slated to miss the remainder of the regular season following his surgery, and it's unclear whether he'd be able to return for a potential playoff run. Over 21 appearances to begin the regular season, Foerster recorded 10 goals, three assists, 20 hits, 18 blocked shots and 18 PIM while averaging 17:27 of ice time.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: On injured reserve

The Flyers announced Tuesday that Foerster is expected to miss the next 2-3 months, so his placement on injured reserve isn't surprising. He has 10 goals and 13 points in 21 outings this season. Matvei Michkov should see an increase in his workload due to Foerster's absence.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Two goals in 17 seconds
Rotowire
Foerster scored two goals and placed three shots on net in Saturday's 6-3 win over New Jersey.
Foerster caught fire midway through the first period, when he netted two goals just 17 seconds apart, with the first goal coming nine seconds after a Matvei Michkov tally. Foerster has three goals in his last two games and 10 points through 16 appearances this year. He's warming back up after missing four games with a lower-body injury and should see plenty of top-six minutes moving forward. After a 25-goal campaign in 81 games last year, Foerster projects as a solid fantasy option in standard formats and is a top streaming target in deep leagues.

Rotowire
Foerster (lower body) has been taken off injured reserve ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Edmonton, per the NHL media site.
Foerster appears to be good to go after missing the last four games. The 23-year-old winger will slot into a third-line role alongside Noah Cates and Bobby Brink. Foerster generated a point in seven of his opening 11 outings, including a pair of power-play goals.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
Foerster (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, retroactive to Nov. 1.
Foerster was already slated to miss the Flyers' next few games after getting hurt while blocking a shot against the Maple Leafs on Saturday, so it isn't very surprising to see him land on injured reserve. Owen Tippett or Rodrigo Abols will likely move up the lineup in Foerster's absence, while defenseman Emil Andrae was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Flyers' Tyson Foerster: Nets lone goal in loss
Rotowire
Foerster scored a goal and added three hits in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Senators.
Foerster scored 29 seconds into the game, but that goal was the only one Linus Ullmark gave up. It continues Foerster's excellent start to the year, which has seen him rack up three goals and three helpers, as well as 13 shots, five hits and a plus-6 rating, over seven appearances. Foerster should have no trouble maintaining a top-six job as long as he's playing at this level, and he should be on the radar for fantasy managers who were hesitant to draft him after he missed part of camp while recovering from an elbow infection.
