After getting a win in St. Louis, the Flyers were dealt another dose of reality the next night in Colorado in a lopsided loss. The road trip continues as the Flyers head into Nashville on Sunday night.
The Flyers got a win over the Predators on March 17 in Claude Giroux's 1,000th game, rallying back to claim the victory. There have been plenty of changes to theFlyers lineup since then, while the Predators look to continue their playoff push.
Game time is 6 p.m.

Projected Lineups
Flyers Scratches: Nate Thompson (injury), Scott Laughton (injury), Travis Konecny (injury)
- Flyers: Travis Konecny was out with a lower-body injury on Friday. The team did not have a morning skate on Sunday, so any lineup changes will come closer to game time.
