Following a tough 2023-24 season, it seems that Sean Couturier's NHL career could be in its final stages following with recent reports suggesting his injury might be significant.

Philadelphia Flyers coach John Tortorella has recently benched captain Sean Couturier for multiple games, and now, the situation has worsened for the veteran forward. Flyers GM Danny Briere announced on Thursday that Couturier is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, ruling him out for the team's next two games.

Injury update per Flyers GM Daniel Briere:

Sean Couturier has an upper-body injury and is day-to-day. He will not travel with the team and won't be available the next two games.

While Briere's injury update was official, some fans speculated that it might be a strategic move to keep Couturier sidelined for the rest of the season, potentially marking the end of his time with the Flyers.

Tortorella hasn't hidden his frustration with the team, although he didn't mention Couturier by name. His remarks about pushing athletes to improve have stirred discussion about the Flyers direction.

There's no confirmation about Couturier's future, but unless he quickly turns things around and performs well in the playoffs, his decade-long career with the Flyers may be coming to a close.
