Now that the Philadelphia Flyers are in the off-season, it looks like Chuck Fletcher is taking the injury issues of the team seriously. The Flyer's lost the 3rd most games of any team to injury this past (585), trailing only the Coyotes (627) and Canadiens (731). It appears that the key issue facing the Flyers is a medical staff failure.
The issue hasn't affected Ellis only either, Kevin Hayes was brought back from a lower-body injury in February and only played 20 games afterward. Hayes is currently out on the injured reserve and was reported in March to be in rehab and skating, but not in line rushes with teammates.
