Ersson (lower-body) will return and start vs. Dallas on Thursday.

Ersson has been out since suffering a lower-body injury on New Year's Eve but will return to the crease on Thursday against the Dallas Stars. The 25-year-old Ersson has a 3.02 GAA and .884 SV% in 19 appearances (9-6-2) but has been better lately, saving 47 of the last 48 shots in his previous two outings (2-0-0).

Fedotov played his first game in over a month in the Flyers' previous outing, a 3-2 overtime loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. He will be rewarded with another start on Tuesday in a rematch against the Maple Leafs. The towering 6'6 Fedotov has struggled at the NHL level, posting a 3.42 GAA and .877 SV% despite salvaging a serviceable 4-4-2 record. The Flyers enter Tuesday's contest as +112 home underdogs against a Maple Leafs club riding a four-game winning streak.

Kolosov will start in Vegas on Thursday.

With Samuel Ersson (lower body) sidelined, Kolosov will start for the Flyers on Thursday against the Vegas Golden Knights. Kolosov was solid relieving an injured Ersson on Tuesday, saving all seven shots he faced in a 4-0 win over the San Jose Sharks. That said, the 22-year-old Kolosov has battled adversity in his first NHL season, posting a 3.39 GAA and .872 SV% in 14 appearances (4-7-1). The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as +175 road underdogs against a Golden Knights squad whose six-game losing skid snapped in a 3-2 loss against the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday.

Aleksei Kolosov
Ersson (lower-body) is considered day-to-day and unlikely to play on Thursday vs. Vegas.

Ersson left Tuesday's game vs. San Jose in the second period with a lower-body injury after stopping all 17 of the Sharks' shots he faced but is unfortunately unlikely to play on Thursday in Vegas. He is considered day-to-day and if he misses any period, expect Aleksei Kolosov to take over the crease in his absence.
