The Philadelphia Flyers return from their four day break looking for their fourth straight win. Welcome the Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers to town tonight.
Goaltending, especially the backup position, was one the main question marks for the Flyers this season. Especially when starter Samuel Ersson went down with injury.
But, in the absence of Ersson, the two Flyers backups – Ivan Fedotov and Aleksei Kolosov – have stepped up in a big way. The pair have been the backbone of the Flyers turnaround.
Over their last 12-games, the Flyers are 8-2-2. Of which, Ersson has started just two of those game, 1-0-1. While, Fedotov and Kolosov have carried the load the other ten games.
The pair combining for seven wins and just two losses. Fedotov is 4-1-1 with 2.57 GAA & .908%. Kolosov is 3-1-0 with 2.25 GAA and .913%.
While Ersson is closing in on a return, it will have to wait another game.
Fedotov will make his 10th start of the season. On the season, Fedotov is 4-4-1 with 3.39 GAA & .881%.
