Ersson allowed one goal on 21 shots in the Flyers win over the Blues on Thursday. Ersson has won three in a row while posting a 2.00 GAA and .917 SV%. He draws a pretty solid matchup this afternoon against a Bruins team that has the seventh-fewest goals per game (2.64) this season. Still, the Flyers are +102 home underdogs.

Most teams that started the 2024-25 season by alternating goalies have geared away to the hotter hand, but in their 11th game of the season, the Flames will keep that trend alive and turn to Vladar between the pipes for his sixth start. The 27-year-old Vladar has been serviceable, albeit unspectacular, recording a 2-2-1 record with a 3.18 GAA and .895 SV%. The Flames, riding a four-game losing skid (0-4-0), enter Friday's contest against the New Jersey Devils, winners of two straight, as +151 home underdogs.

After losing six straight (0-5-1), the Flyers have won their last two contests with Ersson between the pipes, including a stellar 23-save shutout on Tuesday in a 2-0 win over the Boston Bruins. The 25-year-old Ersson has had an inconsistent start to the 2024-25 season, a byproduct of porous team play, posting a 3.00 GAA and .891 SV% in seven appearances (3-2-1). The Flyers enter the action on Thursday as -136 home favorites against a St. Louis Blues club pummeled 8-1 by the Ottawa Senators in their previous game.

After missing the last three games, Brink will return to the Flyers lineup on Tuesday, replacing Nicolas Deslauriers. Brink has four points (1G / 3A) in six games this season, all recorded during a season-opening four-game point streak.

Bobby Brink will return to the Flyers lineup on Tuesday, replacing Deslauriers. The hard-hitting Deslauriers played the last four games for the Flyers, tallying one assist, five penalty minutes, and nine hits.

After snapping a six-game losing skid on Saturday, the Flyers returned to the losing column on Sunday and have a lowly 2-6-1 record this season. Despite allowing five goals on 26 shots (.808 SV%), Ersson was between the pipes in Saturday's 7-5 victory over the Minnesota Wild and will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Boston Bruins. Allowing 4.4 goals per game, the Flyers rank in the bottom tier of the NHL and enter Tuesday's contest against the Bruins as +170 road underdogs.

After starting the season on a 5-0-1 run, the Flames have lost two consecutive games in regulation and will turn to Vladar between the pipes. The 27-year-old Vladar has been serviceable this season, allowing three or fewer goals in three of four outings (2-1-1), posting a respectable 2.73 GAA and .904 SV%. The Flames enter the action on Monday as +149 road underdogs against a Vegas Golden Knights club averaging a league-best 4.7 goals per game through nine games this season (6-2-1).

The Flyers rank worst in the league defensively, allowing an average of 4.5 goals per game, and will hope that Kolosov can give them some confidence in the crease in his first career NHL game. The 22-year-old Kolosov has a 3.29 GAA and .875 SV% in four games (1-2-1) with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) this season. The Flyers snapped a six-game losing streak on Saturday (0-5-1), with a 7-5 win over the Minnesota Wild, and enter the action on Sunday as -160 home favorites against the Montreal Canadiens.

Konecny missed Friday's practice but is good to go for Saturday's game vs. The Wild. Konecny comes into play with three goals and one assist in seven games this season.

York suffered an upper-body injury late in Wednesday's loss in Washington and will miss at least the next two weeks. Erik Johnson will replace York in the lineup on Saturday but Rasmus Ristolainen will move up to the top pair to take on additional minutes in York's absence.
