  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Ersson (lower body), who remains on injured reserve, has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Carolina and is considered day-to-day. Ersson tweaked a lower-body injury at practice last Wednesday, and it's encouraging to see him deemed day-to-day after he initially carried a return timetable of 1-2 weeks. It's not yet clear when the 25-year-old netminder will be able to return to game action, but he seems to be progressing well in his recovery.

  Ersson (lower body) was put on injured reserve Sunday, per the NHL media site. Following a 28-save effort in a 4-3 shootout win over San Jose on Monday, Ersson tweaked a previous injury and received a 1-2 week timeline for his recovery. His move to IR will free up a roster spot for the Flyers to bring up a defenseman from AHL Lehigh Valley because of injuries to Cam York (upper body), Emil Andrae (undisclosed) and Jamie Drysdale (upper body).

  Ersson will be unavailable for Thursday's game against Ottawa due to a lower-body injury. Ersson had already been ruled out for Thursday's matchup after tweaking something during Wednesday's practice session, and the team has now clarified that he's dealing with a lower-body issue. However, the injury isn't considered a long-term concern, so he should be deemed day-to-day ahead of Saturday's home game against the Sabres.

• Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Stuck with shootout loss in return

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  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.

  Ersson (lower body) will guard the road goal in Saturday's tilt against Florida, according to Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports. Ersson left last Saturday's 3-0 loss to Boston after logging just 7:36 of ice time because of the injury. He has a 4-2-1 record, 2.68 GAA and .901 save percentage in nine appearances in 2024-25. The Panthers will be a challenging adversary -- they're 10-3-1 and rank fifth offensively with 3.86 goals per game.
