The injury woes for the Philadelphia Flyers at the goaltender position took another hit on Thursday with news that Michael Leighton will miss 8-10 weeks with a high ankle sprain.

The Flyers will need to win a couple of playoff series to give Leighton a chance to return to the lineup.

The Flyers' starter at the beginning of the season was Ray Emery, who is out for the year after undergoing hip surgery earlier this month.

Wow Philly your goal tending is now ultra deep with Boucher and AHLer and possibly John Grahme

Grahme is playing in the KHL for Avangard Omsk.

Actually he's back in the AHL for Philly's team, he's still on an AHL contract though.
