Philadelphia Flyers News
Ersson will start on Monday vs. San Jose.

The Flyers will turn to Ersson between the pipes for a second consecutive game on Monday. Ersson returned from a two-game absence due to a lower-body injury on Saturday and saved 28 of 31 shots (.903 SV%) in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Florida Panthers. The 25-year-old Ersson has a 2.69 GAA and .902 SV% in 10 games this season. The Flyers enter the action on Monday as -240 home favorites against a San Jose Sharks club that defeated the New Jersey Devils 1-0 last night.

Matvei Michkov will return to Philadelphia's lineup after a two-game absence on Monday vs. San Jose.

Michkov, an early-season favorite for the Calder trophy, was a healthy scratch the previous two games but will draw back into the lineup on Monday against the San Jose Sharks. Michkov recorded an assist in his previous outing but was held off the scoresheet in four straight before that.

Poehling (undisclosed) is expected to return on Monday vs. San Jose.

Poehling has missed the previous three games but will re-enter the lineup on Monday against the San Jose Sharks. The 25-year-old Poehling played all 12 games of the season before his injury, tallying five points (0G / 5A), while averaging 13:31 time-on-ice.

Kolosov is out for Thursday night's game in Tampa Bay due to a lower-body injury.

Kolsov appeared to suffer the injury during today's morning skate and has been ruled out for tonight's game as a result. The 22-year-old Kolosov has a 3.92 GAA and .863 SV% through three games (0-3-0) and his potential absence from the team makes the crease murky for a Flyers squad that is already without Samuel Ersson (lower body).

Aleksei Kolosov
Fedotov will start in Tampa Bay on Thursday.

The Flyers will be forced to turn to the Fedotov tonight after Aleksei Kolosov was ruled out due to a lower-body injury. Philadelphia also signed goaltender Kyle Konin to an amateur tryout and he will serve as the team's emergency back-up goalie on Thursday. Fedotov has not fared well in his limited action so far this season, posting an 0-3-0 record to go along with an .821 SV% and a 5.35 GAA. He draws a brutal assignment tonight as the Flyers enter action as sizable underdogs at +175.

Ivan Fedotov
Kolosov (undisclosed) was originally slated to start but left Thursday's morning skate and did not return.

Ivan Fedotov will likely draw in as the netminder for the Flyers on Thursday, with the possibility of an EBUG serving as his backup. That said, fantasy owners will likely need to wait until warmups for a Flyers' goalie confirmation given the unusual circumstances. The 22-year-old Kolosov has a 3.92 GAA and .863 SV% through three games (0-3-0) and his potential absence from the team makes the crease murky for a Flyers squad that is already without Samuel Ersson (lower body).

Aleksei Kolosov
Richard will make his season debut on Thursday in Tampa Bay.

Richard played nine games with the Boston Bruins last season, scoring three points (1G / 2A), but has primarily been an AHL player since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft by the Nashville Predators. The 27-year-old Richard has nine points (4G / 5A) in seven games with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) this season). Rookie phenom Matvei Michkov will be a healthy scratch on Thursday to accommodate Richard's entry into the Flyers lineup.

Anthony Richard
Richard has been recalled from Lehigh Valley (AHL).

Richard played nine games with the Boston Bruins last season, scoring three points (1G / 2A), but has primarily been an AHL player since being drafted in the fourth-round of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft by the Nashville Predators. The 27-year-old Richard has nine points (4G / 5A) in seven games with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) this season).

Poehling (personal) did not travel with the team and is out on Tuesday in Carolina.

Nicolas Deslauriers will draw into the Flyers lineup on Tuesday, replacing Poehling, who is away from the team for personal reasons. The 25-year-old Poehling has played all 12 games this season, tallying five points (0G / 5A), while averaging 13:31 time-on-ice.

Ryan Poehling
Kolosov will start on Tuesday in Carolina.

With Samuel Ersson (lower-body) sidelined, the Flyers will turn to Kolosov between the pipes on Tuesday against the Carolina Hurricanes. Despite an 0-2-2 record to start his NHL career, Kolosov was serviceable in his most recent outing, replacing Ersson midway through the first period and continuing to save 20 of 22 shots (.909 SV%) in an eventual 3-0 loss to the Boston Bruins. That said, the Flyers have allowed 44 goals this season, fifth most in the league, and enter Tuesday's contest against the Hurricanes as significant +258 road underdogs.

Aleksei Kolosov
York (upper-body) will likely travel on Philadelphia's upcoming road trip but is unsure if he will play.

York has not played the last five games due to an upper-body injury but could draw back into the lineup on the Flyers' upcoming road trip, which begins on Tuesday against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 23-year-old York is averaging 22:56 time-on-ice and has three points (2G / 1A) through seven games this season.

Cam York
Ersson (lower-body) did not practice on Monday after leaving the last game with an injury.

Ersson played only 7:36 time-on-ice, exiting in the first period of Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Boston Bruins with a lower-body injury. The Flyers' crease will likely be shared by Aleksei Kolosov and Ivan Fedotov in Ersson's absence. Ersson was riding a three-game winning streak before his injury, saving 74 of his last 80 shots faced (.925 SV%).
