Status report
Matinpalo will return after missing two games because of a concussion; he'll replace Crotty, a defenseman. ... Senators coach Travis Green said he expects Sanderson to return against the Florida Panthers on Wednesday; the defenseman will miss his eighth straight game. ... Tippett missed the Flyers morning skate and will be a game-time decision because of an upper-body injury; coach Rick Tocchet said it's an issue that has been "bugging him a little bit," and was aggravated further during a 2-1 loss at the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday. ... Wilson, a forward who worked on the fourth line during the morning skate, would play if Tippett can't.
