On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy managers to stream or roster for the rest of the season. The recommended players and goalies are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues and can be selected in standard fantasy leagues or for daily fantasy games.

On a night where there was a full slate of games, Ersson might not have been someone to target. But, with only four games on the docket and heavily rostered starters between the pipes, he gets the nod. Ersson has given up at least four goals in three straight starts, and over 10 appearances in March he's gone 3-5-1 with a rough 4.30 goals-against average and .833 save percentage. One item in his favor is that the Flyers look to be rejuvenated under interim coach Brad Shaw, giving Ersson a chance to rack up wins down the stretch.
