Ersson made 28 saves in regulation and overtime and stopped three of five shootout attempts in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers.
The netminder had sat out the prior two games with a lower-body injury, but Ersson looked healthy in his return to the crease Saturday. He should immediately reclaim the No. 1 job for Philly, as Ersson's 2.69 GAA and .902 save percentage on the season are far superior to the marks posted by Ivan Fedotov (4.05 GAA, .851 save percentage) and Aleksei Kolosov (3.93 GAA, .863 save percentage) -- the latter is currently out with a lower-body injury.
