The Flyers are coming off a 5-1 loss to the Dallas Stars, in which Vladar allowed five goals on 28 shots (.821 SV%), but he will return to the crease on Thursday against the St. Louis Blues. The 28-year-old Vladar has remained the preferred option between the pipes for the Flyers, but has fallen off after a tremendous start to the 2025-26 season. After posting a sensational 1.70 GAA and .939 SV% in his first six games (4-2-0), Vladar has settled into a 3.20 GAA and .869 SV% in five games since (2-2-1). The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as -123 home favorites against a Blues team that has lost four of its last five games (1-3-1).



After two poor outings (1-1-0), allowing eight goals on 39 combined shots (.795 SV%), Vladar returned to his elite early-season form in his last outing, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in a 3-1 win over the Nashville Predators. The 28-year-old Czech goalie will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Edmonton Oilers, looking to build on a solid 2.18 GAA and .917 SV% through nine games this season (6-3-0).

The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as +108 road underdogs against a Nashville Predators team with points in three straight games (1-0-2).

With Samuel Ersson (undisclosed) still sidelined, Vladar remains the Flyers' number-one option between the pipes, and he will return there on Tuesday against the Montreal Canadiens.

Samuel Ersson is battling an undisclosed injury, temporarily giving control of the Flyers' crease to Vladar.

The 28-year-old Czech goalie is boasting an impressive 1.81 GAA and .932 SV% through five games (3-2-0). The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as -144 home favorites against a Nashville Predators team that is being outscored 37-28 through 11 games this season (4-5-2).

Expected to be Philadelphia's backup, or at best, a time-share goalie with Samuel Ersson, Vladar has made an early-season case for extra playing time and returns to the crease on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators. The 28-year-old Vladar has been near-perfect early in the 2025-26 season, posting an outstanding 1.75 GAA and .929 SV% in four games (3-1-0).

The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as +138 road underdogs against a struggling Senators team that has been outscored 33-22 this season (2-4-1).
