Flyers' Dan Vladar: Earns win in Olympic debut
Vladar stopped nine of 12 shots in Czech Republic's 6-3 win over France in the 2026 Winter Olympics on Friday.
Vladar was the backup behind Lukas Dostal in the 5-0 loss to Canada, but the former earned the win in this contest despite posting a .750 save percentage. Vladar allowed all three goals in the opening six minutes of the second period. It remains to be seen whether Dostal or Vladar will get the nod for the final group-stage game against Switzerland on Sunday.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Starting Friday versus France
Vladar will defend the Czech goal versus France on Friday at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
Vladar backed up Lukas Dostal on Thursday as Canada defeated the Czechs 5-0. Vladar is having an outstanding season with the Flyers, going 17-8-6 with a gaudy 2.47 GAA and a .905 save percentage. France looks to be the weakest team in the tournament, and that will benefit Vladar.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Handed overtime loss
Vladar allowed two goals on 27 shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Senators.
Vladar put forth a good performance, but the Flyers didn't match his level. He can be credited with getting the game to overtime, but Tim Stutzle won it for the Senators just 47 seconds into the extra session. Vladar heads into the Olympics with 11 goals allowed on 112 shots over his last five outings, a span in which he went 1-1-2. He's now at a 17-8-6 record with a 2.47 GAA and a .905 save percentage over a career-high 33 appearances. It's unclear if Vladar will see much playing time with the Czech team, which boasts some depth in net with the Ducks' Lukas Dostal and the Mammoth's Karel Vejmelka.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: In goal Thursday
Vladar will get the starting nod at home against the Senators on Thursday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Vladar will make his fifth straight appearance in the crease for the Flyers, having gone 1-1-0 in his last four outings while sporting a 2.70 GAA. Once the backstop wraps up Thursday's tilt, he can focus on joining Team Czechia in Milan, though he may face an uphill battle for starts with Lukas Dostal and Karel Vejmelka, the other two Czech netminders.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Makes 26 saves in win
Vladar stopped 26 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.
Since returning from a lower-body injury last Wednesday, Vladar posted a save percentage of at least .900 and won for the first time. Despite his 2.74 GAA and .885 save percentage since the beginning of January, the 28-year-old netminder should see the bulk of the starts down the stretch for the Flyers.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: In goal Tuesday
Vladar will get the starting nod at home against the Capitals on Tuesday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Vladar has gone six straight appearances in the crease without registering a win, going 0-2-2 with a 3.22 GAA. Still, the 28-year-old backstop remains the No. 1 option for the Flyers, especially with Samuel Ersson (lower body) dealing with an injury. Even with his recent struggles, Vladar should still be capable of reaching the 20-win mark for the first time in his NHL career.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Falls to LA in OT
Vladar stopped 18 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Kings.
Neither goalie faced much rubber in the afternoon contest, but Vladar got beaten twice by Adrian Kempe in the first period before Quinton Byfield ripped a shot past him from the faceoff dot in OT. Vladar is 0-1-1 in three outings since returning from a lower-body injury, allowing seven goals on 57 shots (.877 save percentage), but he'll see the bulk of the playing time in the Philly crease as long as Samuel Ersson (lower body) is on the shelf.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Starting Saturday
Vladar will be between the home pipes versus Los Angeles on Saturday.
Vladar has been stellar in the Philadelphia cage, posting a 16-8-4 record with a 2.49 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 30 appearances in 2025-26. The Kings are generating 2.58 goals per game, 29th in the NHL this season.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Needed in relief Thursday
Vladar stopped all six shots he faced after replacing Samuel Ersson (lower body) to begin the third period of Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Bruins.
Vladar had just returned from his own lower-body injury Wednesday, but he was forced into action in back-to-back games when Ersson wasn't able to answer the bell for the final period. Vladar was set to handle No. 1 duties anyway, and he sports a 16-8-4 record with a 2.49 GAA and .904 save percentage on the season, but he could see even more work than expected if Ersson misses significant time. Aleksei Kolosov will likely be summoned from AHL Lehigh Valley to back up Vladar while Ersson is on the shelf.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Loses to Blue Jackets in return
Vladar stopped 26 of 30 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Vladar missed six games due to a lower-body injury. While his final line doesn't really reflect it, Vladar played a big part in keeping this game competitive despite taking the loss. He's down to a 16-8-4 record with a 2.52 GAA and a .904 save percentage over 29 starts. Samuel Ersson is likely to start Thursday in Boston, but Vladar should see a majority of the action between the pipes moving forward, as Ersson did little to improve his standing during Vladar's absence.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Set for return Wednesday
Vladar (lower body) will be activated off injured reserve to start Wednesday's road clash against the Blue Jackets, per Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.
With head coach Rick Tocchet confirming Vladar is good to go for Wednesday's contest, the netminder will make his return following a six-game absence. Across 28 appearances this season, the 28-year-old Vladar has a 16-7-4 record, a 2.46 GAA and a .905 save percentage. His return should help shore up the Flyers' defense, which has allowed at least four goals in four of their last six games. Vladar will face a Blue Jackets offense that ranks 20th in the NHL with 3.00 goals per game, giving him a favorable matchup for his return.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Close to return
Vladar (lower body) participated in Monday's morning skate and is nearing a return to the lineup, Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports reports.
Vladar will miss his sixth straight game when the Flyers host the Islanders on Monday, but he probably could have served as Samuel Ersson's backup. However, Philadelphia will give the 28-year-old Vladar some additional time to recover before activating him from injured reserve. He has posted a 16-7-4 record with a 2.46 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 28 appearances this season.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: On injured reserve
Vladar (undisclosed) was put on injured reserve Monday, per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
Bobby Brink (upper body) was taken off IR in a corresponding move. Vladar last played Wednesday, so this move can be retroactive to that date. The 28-year-old goaltender has a 16-7-4 record, 2.46 GAA and .905 save percentage in 28 outings in 2025-26. Samuel Ersson and Aleksei Kolosov are competing for work while Vladar is on the shelf.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Unavailable for Saturday
Vladar (undisclosed) isn't expected to play at home Saturday versus the Rangers, per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
Vladar also missed Wednesday's 6-3 loss to Pittsburgh because of the injury. He has a 16-7-4 record, 2.46 GAA and .905 save percentage in 28 appearances this season. Vladar is still regarded as day-to-day, so he might be an option Monday in Vegas. Until Vladar is ready to return, Samuel Ersson and Aleksei Kolosov will compete for starts.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Out as expected Thursday
Vladar (undisclosed) won't suit up Thursday versus the Penguins, Flyers Director of Broadcasting Brian Smith reports.
Vladar will miss at least one game with the injury he sustained Wednesday against the Sabres. An update on Vladar's status hasn't been provided by the team yet, leaving his timeline to return in question, though Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports the issue is not expected to be a long-term concern. Samuel Ersson and Aleksei Kolosov will handle the goaltending duties until Vladar is able to return.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Leaves Wednesday's game
Vladar sustained an undisclosed injury Wednesday versus the Sabres and will be evaluated after the game.
Vladar's injury occurred at some point in the first period. He allowed two goals on five shots prior to his exit, and Samuel Ersson took over in goal. If Vladar misses additional time, expect Aleksei Kolosov to get called up from AHL Lehigh Valley.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Drawing start against Buffalo
Vladar will start Wednesday's road game against Buffalo, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Vladar has posted an 0-1-1 record over his last two starts, but he carried a three-game winning streak prior to that stretch. Overall, he's gone 3-1-1 with a 2.60 GAA and an .897 save percentage across his past five outings. Buffalo has scored 3.18 goals per game this year, which ranks 12th in the NHL.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Can use a little help from friends
Vladar made 21 saves on 25 shots in a 5-1 loss to the Lightning on Monday. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Vladar played well, but his team was still shaken from Saturday's 7-2 loss to Bolts. It was his first regulation loss since Dec. 28, and he'd gone 3-0-1 in his next four contests. Vladar has been a very pleasant surprise for the Flyers. He's 16-7-4 with a 2.42 GAA and .907 save percentage in 27 starts this season, and he's already set a career mark for wins.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: In goal against Bolts
Vladar will get the starting nod at home versus Tampa Bay on Monday.
Vladar is undefeated in regulation over his last four contests, going 3-0-1 with nine goals allowed on 101 shots. Given his current pace, the 28-year-old should push for the 30-win threshold this year, which would be a huge improvement considering he has never reached the 20-win mark in his six-year NHL career.

Flyers' Dan Vladar: Career season continues
Vladar made 21 saves in a 2-1 overtime loss to Toronto on Thursday.
Vladar was nursing a shutout until the 14:04 mark of the third when former Philly pivot, Scott Laughton, beat him from distance while shorthanded. And he allowed the winner on an odd-man rush in OT. Vladar had rung up three straight wins prior to Thursday's game. He's 3-0-1 in his last four starts and 5-1-1 in his previous seven. Overall, Vladar continues to deliver the best numbers of his career. He is 16-6-4 with a 2.35 GAA and .910 save percentage in 26 outings.
