Flyers' Emil Andrae: Gets on scoresheet Sunday
Rotowire
Andrae notched an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Senators.
Andrae snapped a 16-game point drought at the NHL level when he helped out on a Noah Cates tally in the second period. The 23-year-old Andrae has played regularly since Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body) exited the lineup. That ice time has mostly been in a third-pairing role for Andrae, who has done a fair but not overly impressive job. He's at seven points, 50 shots on net, 49 blocked shots, 45 hits and a minus-4 rating across 40 NHL outings this season.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: Not taking advantage of opportunity
Rotowire
Andrae has failed to record a point over 14 games since he was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on March 7.
Andrae has received another chance to prove himself in the absence of Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body), but it hasn't gone well. In addition to the lack of points, Andrae has a minus-7 rating, 13 hits, 13 blocked shots and 17 shots on net since his recall. He's at six points, 48 shots on net, 47 blocks, 43 hits and a minus-5 rating through 38 outings this season. While he's still just 23 years old, Andrae needs to find an area to excel in if he's going to be part of the Flyers' long-term plans, especially once other prospects are ready to push for his job.

Rotowire
Andrae was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Saturday.
Andrae earned an assist over four contests during this stint with the big club. The 22-year-old is knocking on the door of being an NHL regular, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him called up ahead of the Flyers' next game Feb. 22 versus the Oilers.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: First point since recall
Rotowire
Andrae logged an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.
The helper was Andrae's first point in three contests since he was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley. He's filling while Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body) and Egor Zamula (upper body) are sidelined. Through 23 outings with the NHL club, Andrae has produced six points, 31 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, 28 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-2 rating. He impressed at times during an earlier stint in the NHL but wasn't able to sustain that level of play, so his stay with the big club this time may not last very long if he starts to struggle.

Rotowire
Andrae was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday.
Andrae had been a healthy scratch for three straight games before he returned Thursday against the Kings, where he had two shots on goal in 16:05 of action. Overall, Andrae has one goal and four assists with 22 hits and 28 blocked shots across 20 appearances with the Flyers this season.
Andrae notched a power-play assist and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Andrae snapped a four-game point drought when he helped out on the first of Matvei Michkov's two goals in the first period. The 22-year-old Andrae continues to hold onto a top-four role through steady defensive play, and any offense he adds is a bonus. He's at five points, 23 shots on net, 20 hits, 20 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 17 appearances this season.

Andrae scored a goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Monday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Golden Knights.
Andrae's second-period tally was the first of his NHL career. The 22-year-old defenseman has stepped up to become an indispensable part of the Flyers' blue line this season, mainly through strong defensive play. He's collected four points, 17 shots on net, 16 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 12 outings. Andrae will likely stay in the lineup over Helge Grans once Jamie Drysdale (upper body) returns.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: Taking line rushes Friday
Rotowire
Andrae (undisclosed) was a full practice participant Friday, Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports reports, indicating he could be an option versus Chicago on Saturday.
Since Cam York (upper body) is also nearing a return to action, Andrae suddenly finds himself in a crowded mix for blue-line minutes. The eventual return of Jamie Drysdale (upper body) may push Andrae even further down the depth chart. Over his 10 outings this year, the 22-year-old Andrae has registered three assists, 13 shots and eight PIM while dishing out 15 hits.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: Dealing with injury
Rotowire
Andrae (undisclosed) missed the last 9:21 of Saturday's game versus the Sabres due to an injury, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.
Head coach John Tortorella did not have an update on the nature or severity of Andrae's injury in his postgame comments. Andrae has played well in a top-four role, so this injury could have an impact on the Flyers' defense, though that could be mitigated if Cam York (upper body) or Jamie Drysdale (upper body) is able to return soon. Andrae's status should be updated prior to Monday's game versus the Avalanche.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: Deals power-play helper
Rotowire
Andrae logged a power-play assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Sharks.
Andrae has played fairly well since his Oct. 26 recall, but he has little to show for it. The 22-year-old defenseman has two helpers, an even plus-minus rating, 11 shots on net, 13 hits and nine blocked shots over eight contests. Andrae has seen steady top-four usage due to injuries on the Flyers' blue line, but he may be at risk of being sent down to AHL Lehigh Valley once both of Cam York and Jamie Drysdale return from their respective upper-body injuries.
