Egor Zamula - Quiet on offenseZamula was held off the scoresheet for the ninth game in a row in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Kings.
ImpactZamula's been scratched six times in that span, though he's played in the last four games. The 24-year-old is still struggling to carve out a regular role. Emil Andrae was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday, so Zamula has a little more job security for now, but he may still exit the lineup for Erik Johnson or Cam York in the near future. Overall, Zamula has six points, 14 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating over 23 contests this season.

Morgan Frost - Adds helper in lossFrost notched an assist and went minus-3 in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Kings.
ImpactFrost set up the second of Tyson Foerster's tallies in the game. With 11:43 of ice time, Frost played the least of any Philadelphia skater. The 25-year-old's play has already put him in the doghouse with head coach John Tortorella at times this season, and aside from going 7-for-11 on faceoffs Thursday, Frost could be heading for another rough patch. The Flyers aren't carrying an extra forward at this time, but they could still opt to dress seven defensemen. Frost has 13 points, 47 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 29 appearances, and it seems like he'd benefit from a change of scenery -- as long as that doesn't mean an elevator ride to the press box.

Noah Cates - Goals in consecutive gamesCates scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Flyers.
ImpactCates has scored in back-to-back contests and has three goals and an assist over his last five games. The 25-year-old was one of two Flyers to finish with a positive plus-minus rating (plus-1) in Thursday's blowout loss. Cates has four goals, five assists, 29 shots on net, 33 hits and a plus-6 rating through 29 appearances in a third-line role this season.

Jacob Moverare - Bags apple in winMoverare notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flyers.
ImpactThe helper was Moverare's first point of the campaign. The 26-year-old has been a regular in the lineup over the last month, and it helps that the Kings are using seven defensemen. That said, he's playing in a third-pairing role, averaging 12:20 of ice time per game. He's added 10 shots on net, 16 hits, 20 blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-1 rating through 14 appearances.
