Tyson Foerster is returning to the Flyers’ lineup tonight, September 29, 2025. Foerster, a 23-year-old Forward for the Flyers, has been recovering from an elbow injury sustained during the 2025 IIHF World Championships, which was complicated by an infection.
On September 23, 2025, Foerster was cleared for contact and seen practicing in a regular jersey, a strong sign of his recovery. Flyers’ General Manager Danny Briere and Head Coach Rick Tocchet expressed optimism about his readiness for the regular season, though he was not expected to play in the Pre-Season game against Montreal on September 23.
By September 24, 2025, Foerster was reported to be back to full health, with indications he could be ready for Opening Night, though no specific return date for Pre-Season games was confirmed.
There was also a report from July 2025 suggesting a possible biceps injury that could sideline him for up to three months, but later updates in September clarified that his elbow recovery was on track, and he was expected to be ready for the start of the 2025-26 season.
Foerster is ready to go, and ready to play. The Flyers’ Pre-Season schedule includes a game against the Boston Bruins on September 27, and their next game is likely later in the week, with Foerster expected to participate in one or two Pre-Season games before the regular season starts.
