AP - Flyers left wing Patrick Thoresen was released from the hospital Saturday after tests revealed no serious injury from a shot that hit him in the groin area.

Thoresen lay writhing in pain after blocking Mike Green?s shot in the third period Friday night of a loss to the Capitals. The 24-year-old forward was taken to Washington Hospital Center, where two ultrasound tests turned up negative.

?They were checking to see if there was a rupture. There was none,? general manager Paul Holmgren said. ?We?re thankful it?s not more serious than it is. I?m sure he?s sore, but I wouldn?t be surprised if he played tomorrow.?

Thoresen rested at the team hotel while the Flyers practiced for Sunday?s Game 2 in the first-round playoff series. [READ]
