Flyers: Are We Headed Towards a Goalie Controversy? The push and pull between Sam Ersson and Aleksei Kolosov may force the Philadelphia Flyers into having an uncomfortable conversation about g...

Headed for minors Kolosov is expected to be sent down to AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday, Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports reports.

Impact Kolosov finds himself as the odd man out now that Samuel Ersson has returned from a lower-body injury. In his two appearances for the Flyers this year, the 23-year-old Kolosov went 0-1-0 despite a solid 1.62 GAA and .929 save percentage. If he can keep playing at that level in the minors, Kolosov could force the Flyers to bring him back up at some point. For now, it will be Dan Vladar and Ersson splitting the workload in Philadelphia.

Gets little help in loss Kolosov stopped 19 of 21 shots in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Flames.

Impact Kolosov made his first start of the season, but the Flyers' offense didn't offer him much support. The 23-year-old still played a decent game, and he's now stopped 26 of 28 shots over two appearances this season. He'll be up with the big club while Samuel Ersson (undisclosed) is on the mend, but Dan Vladar is likely to see a majority of the playing time between the pipes. The Flyers are on the road for their next two games, with a tough matchup in Montreal on Tuesday followed by a more favorable contest against Nashville on Thursday.

Starting following strong finish Kolosov will get the start in net Sunday against the Flames, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Kolosov made his first appeaeance of the season Saturday, playing a majority of the third period and stopping all seven shots he faced in relief of Dan Vladar. The 23-year-old will now get the chance to start his own game for the first time this season against the struggling Flames, owners of the NHL's worst offense at 2.15 goals per game.

Perfect in relief against Toronto Kolosov stopped all seven shots he faced in relief Saturday in a 5-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact He replaced starter Dan Vladar early in the third period. It was Kolosov's first appearance this season. Last year, he went 5-9-1 with a 3.59 GAA and .867 save percentage. Kolosov will remain with the team until Samuel Ersson (undisclosed) remains out. Expect Vladar to carry the mail during that period, though.

Recalled from AHL The Flyers called up Kolosov from AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday, according to Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports.

Impact Kolosov will back up Dan Vladar on Thursday as Samuel Ersson remains out with an undisclosed injury. Kolosov was 3-2-0 with a 2.60 GAA and a .918 save percentage in five AHL games before his recall.

Earns first AHL shutout Kolosov posted a 35-save shutout in AHL Lehigh Valley's 3-0 win over Cleveland on Friday.

Impact Kolosov was facing former Flyers teammate Ivan Fedotov in this game. While it was just one game, Kolosov made it look like a smart move the Flyers kept him, as he earned the first AHL shutout of his career. He's allowed two goals on 62 shots over his first two games of the Phantoms' season. Should anything happen to Samuel Ersson or Dan Vladar, Kolosov is likely to get called up to Philadelphia.

Poor outing in loss Kolosov gave up four goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Sabres. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Kolosov didn't show anything to leave a positive impression heading into the offseason. He ends the 2024-25 campaign with a 5-9-1 record, a 3.59 GAA and an .867 save percentage over 17 NHL appearances. Samuel Ersson took a step back and Ivan Fedotov wasn't much better than Kolosov, so the Flyers will certainly be taking a long look at goaltending in the offseason. All three netminders are under contract for 2025-26, but Kolosov is the only one who will be waivers exempt, though he has previously shown reluctance to play in the AHL.

The 23-year-old rookie netminder is 5-8-1 on the season at the top level with a 3.56 GAA and .867 save percentage.
