Philadelphia Flyers forward Sean Couturier has a herniated disc in his back that could cost him several months, if not the entire season, according to a report by the renowned Anthony San Filippo.

As reported by Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, Couturier and the Flyers are seeking a second opinion to determine the exact nature of the injury.

The pain occurred in the last few days while skating. Although it is in the same area as the previous injury, there is no certainty yet that it is the same injury.
