The Jets are getting a major boost tonight when they face the Flyers, as Haydn Fleury returns to the lineup from injury, with several other players slotting in.

The Jets will look to extend their win streak to three if they can go into Philadelphia this evening and pick up a victory.
Based on yesterday's practice, it seemed that they would be getting at least one of Haydn Fleury or Cole Koepke back after both had been ruled as day-to-day by head coach Scott Arniel, and today it was confirmed.
Haydn Fleury will be slotting back into the lineup tonight, as will Koepke. Kyle Connor and Gustav Nyquist, who both had maintenance days yesterday, are also good to go.

Tanner Pearson is also getting a promotion as he moves up in the lineup, as can be seen from the projected roster below.

Their opponent this evening, the Flyers, picked up their first win of the season in their home opener three days back, defeating the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers by a score of 5-2.
While it is just three games into their season, they aren't scoring a ton of goals, but they are also proving stingy in what they are giving up, so the Jets will have to be all systems go if they want to get pucks past the defenders and into the net.
