Fedotov was the 188th overall pick of the Flyers in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. The 27-year-old netminder made his NHL debut late in the 2023-24 season, posting a 4.95 GAA and .811 SV% across three appearances (0-1-1).
Ginning will return to Lehigh-Valley (AHL) for their playoff push Wednesday after Philadelphia's season ended on Tuesday. The 24-year-old rookie appeared in nine games for the Flyers and had one goal and six SOG while averaging only 14:09 TOI.
Philadelphia's season ended Tuesday, so Ronnie Attard has been reassigned to Lehigh-Valley for their playoff run. The 25-year-old defenseman appeared in only 12 games for the Flyers this season and had two assists, 14 SOG, six PIMs and a +1 plus/minus.
With Philadelphia's season ending on Tuesday, Bobby Brink has been loaned to Lehigh-Valley (AHL) for their playoff run on Wednesday. The 22-year-old rookie ends his inaugural season with a solid 11 goals, 23 points, 81 SOG, and 10 PIMs after 57 games played.
Rizzo was drafted 216th overall in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft by the Carolina Hurricanes and has earned himself an entry-level contract after three seasons of collegiate hockey. The 22-year-old forward amassed 44 points (10G / 34A) in 30 games with the University of Denver this season.
The Flyers will turn to Ersson between the pipes in their final game of the season. Ersson has played superbly in his last two games, allowing only one total goal and recording a 20-save shutout in his last outing, a 1-0 victory over the New Jersey Devils. The Flyers need to win against the Washington Capitals on Tuesday and need help around the league to make the playoffs, but they enter action as -143 home favourites.
McDonald was the 165th overall pick of the Flyers in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 21-year-old played collegiate hockey for Northeastern University and recently made his professional debut in the AHL, playing nine games with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms.
Staal somehow managed an even plus/minus in Philadelphia's 9-3 loss to Montreal on Tuesday but will be the odd man out of the lineup on Thursday as Egor Zamula returns. The 37-year-old veteran defenseman has had a season to forget in his first year in Philadelphia, with a goal and five points, 14 PIMs, 20 SOG and a +2 plus/minus in 35 games played.
Zamula has been a healthy scratch for the Flyers' previous three games but will draw back in on Thursday vs. the Rangers as he takes the spot of Marc Staal. The 24-year-old has enjoyed a solid breakout season in 2023-24, with five goals, 20 points, 58 SOG, 32 PIMs and his +1 plus/minus through 63 games played.
Atkinson was a healthy scratch for Philadelphia's previous game but will draw back in on Thursday as Olle Lycksell is a healthy scratch. The 34-year-old is having his least productive season since 2012-13, with his 13 goals, 15 assists, 174 SOG, 25 PIMs and -22 plus/minus through 67 games played this year.
Lycksell has played the last three games, recording two points (1G / 1A), but will be a healthy scratch on Thursday against the New York Rangers. The 24-year-old Lycksell has five points (1G / 4A) in 18 games this season.
The Flyers are amid a disastrous eight-game losing skid and will turn to Ersson in the crease for a third-straight game. Ersson has allowed five or more goals in four of his last six games (0-6-0), including allowing five on 17 shots (.706 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 9-3 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. The Flyers are desperate for points but enter action on Thursday as +180 road underdogs against the New York Rangers.
Attard has appeared in 12 games this season but will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday in Montreal. The 25-year-old has two assists, 14 SOG and six PIMs this season but will be replaced by Marc Staal on Tuesday.
Ginning has only appeared in one game since March 30th but will return to the press box on Tuesday in Montreal as Erik Johnson takes his spot in the Flyers lineup. The 24-year-old rookie has one goal, and six SOG while averaging just 14:09 TOI/GP this season.
With the return of Sean Couturier (upper body), Cam Atkinson will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday in Montreal. The 34-year-old is having his worst offensive season in three years with his 13 goals, 28 points, 174 SOG and -22 plus/minus through 67 games played.
Johnson was a healthy scratch for the Flyers' previous game but will draw back into the lineup on Tuesday as he takes the place of Adam Ginning. The 36-year-old veteran defenseman has somehow managed to not pick up an assist in 50 games this year, but has three goals, 40 SOG, 24 PIMs and a -5 plus/minus.
Staal has only appeared in one game since March 16th but will make another appearance on Tuesday as he replaced Ronnie Attard vs. Montreal. The 37-year-old may finally be showing signs of aging as he has his lowest point output since 2011-12 with his one goal and five points in 34 games played this season.
Couturier has missed the Flyers' previous two games with an upper-body injury but will return on Tuesday in Montreal. The 31-year-old reached 70 games played for the first time since 2018-19 last game and has had a decent season with 36 points (11G/25A) after missing all of 2022-23 due to injury.
