Sabres' Felix Sandstrom: Starting against Detroit
Sandstrom will guard the home crease in Monday's preseason game against the Red Wings, according to Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.
Sandstrom will likely play out the 2024-25 season with AHL Rochester, so long as Buffalo's netminders remain healthy. The 27-year-old was 1-2-0 with an .823 save percentage and a 3.88 GAA in five regular-season appearances with the Flyers in 2023-24.

Sabres' Felix Sandstrom: Between pipes against Sens
Sandstrom will guard the cage on the road versus Ottawa on Thursday, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports.
Sandstrom is expected to play the full game Thursday while Scott Ratzlaff serves as the No. 2 option. In limited action last year, the 27-year-old Sandstrom went 1-2-0 with a 3.88 GAA and .823 save percentage for the Flyers. Given the Sabres' goaltending depth, Sandstrom will almost certainly start the year in the minors with AHL Rochester, likely splitting the workload with Devon Levi.

Sabres' Felix Sandstrom: Signs two-way pact
Sandstrom agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with the Sabres on Monday.
Sandstrom has struggled at the NHL level, going 4-18-4 with a 3.66 GAA and .880 save percentage in 30 games while with the Flyers over the last three years. With Philadelphia moving in a different direction after signing Ivan Fedotov to compete with Samuel Ersson, the 27-year-old Sandstrom joins a Sabres organization that is significantly less certain when it comes to the goaltending position. Sandstrom will almost certainly start the year in the minors but could get called up if he can prove himself with AHL Rochester.

Sandstrom was sent to AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Russian netminder Ivan Fedotov joined the Flyers from the KHL on Friday, so the team sent Sandstrom to the minors in a corresponding move. Sandstrom was 1-2-0 with a 3.88 GAA and a very weak .823 save percentage in five appearances with the Flyers this season.

Flyers' Felix Sandstrom: Falls to Panthers
Sandstrom allowed three goals on 14 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to Florida.
It was a tough outing for Sandstrom despite facing only 15 shots, as he allowed a goal in each period en route to the loss. The 27-year-old Sandstrom has struggled since he was recalled in early March to back up Samuel Ersson -- he falls to 1-2-0 with an ugly .823 save percentage and 3.87 GAA. The Flyers will look to bounce back Tuesday in a road matchup with the Rangers.

Flyers' Felix Sandstrom: Queasy third period leads to loss
Sandstrom made 24 saves in a 6-5 loss to Boston on Saturday.
The game was tied 2-2 going into the third period, but the floodgates opened for both teams in the final frame. Sandstrom surrendered three even-strength goals in the span of just under three minutes early in the third, and Boston never trailed from that point forward. He has allowed 14 goals in four appearances (two starts). Sandstrom can't be trusted in your net at this point.

Flyers' Felix Sandstrom: Thrown into fire against Bolts
Sandstrom allowed three goals on 11 shots in "relief" as part of Saturday's 7-0 loss to the Lightning.
Sandstrom replaced Samuel Ersson after the latter was blitzed with 15 shots and four goals against in the first period. This was only the second top-level performance of the season for Sandstrom, who earned another look after a win over Ottawa on March 2. Sandstrom wasn't able to stop the bleeding versus the Bolts, but he likely gets a free pass given that it was a total team meltdown and the final goal took place with the Flyers shorthanded.

Flyers' Felix Sandstrom: Expected to start Saturday
Sandstrom will start at home versus Ottawa on Saturday.
This will be Sandstrom's first NHL start of the 2023-24 campaign. He had a 3-12-3 record, 3.72 GAA and .880 save percentage in 20 outings with the Flyers last season. In 2023-24, the 27-year-old has posted a 3.23 GAA and an .882 save percentage in 20 AHL appearances. The Senators, who rank 11th offensively with 3.29 goals per game, might be a difficult assignment for Sandstrom.

Flyers' Felix Sandstrom: Wins season debut
Sandstrom made 24 saves in a 4-2 win over the Senators on Saturday.
It was Sandstrom's NHL season debut. Vladimir Tarasenko beat him on a backhand from the right circle on a 2-on-1 rush early in the second, and Thomas Chabot scored on a one-timer from the bottom of the right circle at 18:02 of the third with his team's net empty. Sandstrom hasn't had a great year in the AHL, but he was sharp when he needed to be Saturday. He struggled in the backup role with the Flyers in 2022-23, going 3-12-3 in 18 starts (20 appearances) and delivering a 3.72 GAA and an .880 save percentage. Leave Sandstrom on the wire until he proves this year is different.
