The Flyers have provided an injury update about their starter.
As Denver Barkey heads back to the London Knights after spending the last couple of months watching the Philadelphia Flyers' training camp from the sidelines, he reflects on his recovery from illness and coming back a stronger player than before.
The Philadelphia Flyers have announced that goaltender Samuel Ersson will be out day-to-day due to a lower-body injury.
Ersson, 25, left the Flyers' last matchup against the San Jose Sharks due to this injury. He was in the middle of a strong game before exiting, too, as he stopped all 15 of San Jose's shots he faced.
With Ersson being the Flyers' best goalie, it is undoubtedly rough news that he is set to miss time. However, on the bright side, it appears that this injury will not keep him sidelined for too long.
Samuel Ersson Ersson has appeared in 19 games this season, where he has a 9-6-2 record, a 3.02 goals-against average, and a .884 save percentage.
