Martin Jones - Still day-to-day Jones (undisclosed) remains day-to-day and isn't expected to play Thursday versus Philadelphia, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Impact Jones has a 9-7-1 record, 2.73 GAA and .908 save percentage in 18 contests this season. Ilya Samsonov is expected to start Thursday while Dennis Hildeby will likely serve as the backup netminder.

Ilya Samsonov - Expected starter for Thursday Samsonov is set to start in Thursday's home game versus Philadelphia, per David Alter of The Hockey News.
Impact Samsonov saved 14 of 15 shots in a 4-1 victory over St. Louis on Tuesday. He's struggled overall this campaign with a 3.26 GAA and an .880 save percentage in 22 outings, but the goaltender has looked good recently, posting a 1.82 GAA and a .927 save percentage across his past six appearances. The Flyers are tied for 22nd offensively with 2.91 goals per game, so this figures to be a somewhat favorable matchup for Samsonov.

Morgan Rielly - Appealing suspension Rielly is expected to appeal his five-game suspension, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports Wednesday.
Impact Rielly has already missed one game and given the slow appeal process, the decision may not come until after the blueliner's suspension is over. While the Vancouver native is stuck in an eight-game goal drought, he has racked up eight helpers over that stretch, including four with the man advantage. Jake McCabe figures to continue substituting into the No. 1 power-play unit with Rielly on the shelf.

Bobby McMann - Three goals pace win McMann found the back of the net three times in a 4-1 win over the Blues on Tuesday.
Impact It was a special night for McMann. After only scoring two total goals in his NHL career, he scored his first hat trick to finish off the Blues. The 27-year old winger played only 13:30 minutes but he made the best of it, getting six shots, five hits and a plus-3 rating. His goal barrage started in the first period on the third shot of the game when he outworked the defenseman from behind the net to shove the puck through the five-hole. He added two more in the third period, including an empty-netter, to complete the hatty. After being moved between the AHL and the NHL multiple times this season, McMann is making a case to stay up with the big club.
