With just two contests left in Philadelphia's schedule, it wouldn't be shocking if this was Sandstrom's last start of the campaign.

Impact Sandstrom has a 2-11-3 record this season with a 3.63 GAA and an .881 save percentage in 18 appearances.

Six goals go past in loss Sandstrom made 23 saves in a 6-3 loss to Buffalo on Saturday.

Impact The Flyers let the game get away from them -- they didn't clear rebounds well, leaving Sandstrom high and dry too many times. Still, he's not a fantasy option. Sandstrom has allowed five or more goals in three of his last four starts (1-1-2). Avoid.

He picked up his second win of the season Tuesday in a 3-2 victory over Montreal, stopping 27 shots. The Senators are 18th in NHL scoring, averaging 3.16 goals per game.

Luck runs out in overtime Sandstrom made 41 saves Thursday in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Senators.

Impact Sandstrom was dialled in most of the night as the Sens bombarded him with pucks. But his luck ran out in overtime, perhaps due to fatigue. Sandstrom played the puck behind the net and gave it away to Alex DeBrincat, who scored the winner into the open net. His record stands at 2-10-3.

MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Collects second win Sandstrom turned aside 27 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact The Flyers never trailed in the game as Sandstrom recorded his second ever win in the NHL, with the first coming back on Nov. 8. The 26-year-old could be in line for more work down the stretch with Carter Hart (lower body) not 100 percent, but Sandstrom's 2-10-2 record, 3.38 GAA and .887 save percentage won't make him a very appealing fantasy option.

MARCH 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Surprise starter Sandstrom will protect the home goal versus Montreal on Tuesday, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.

Impact Carter Hart was originally supposed to face the Canadiens, but he's day-to-day with a lower-body injury, so Sandstrom will get the nod Tuesday. Sandstrom will attempt to secure his second win of the season in a home matchup with a Montreal team that's 14-21-3 on the road this year.

Can't buy win Sandstrom made 29 saves in a 5-4 overtime loss to Carolina on Saturday.

Impact Sandstrom almost made off with his second win of the season, but Martin Necas knocked in a loose puck on a 6-on-4 power play with 0.3 seconds left to tie the game. And then Sebastian Aho completed his hat trick on a rush just 28 seconds into overtime. Sandstrom is 1-10-2 on the season and has just one win in 18 starts over the last two seasons. Two words: waiver wire.

MARCH 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Taking on Golden Knights Sandstrom will guard the home goal versus Vegas on Tuesday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Sandstrom was sharp in his last start Thursday against the Hurricanes, stopping 28 of 29 shots, but he still came away with a loss due to a complete lack of goal support from his teammates. He'll try to secure his second win of the season in a tough home matchup with a surging Golden Knights squad that's won six of its last seven games.

MARCH 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Falls to Vegas Sandstrom stopped 28 of 32 shots in a 5-3 loss to the Golden Knights on Tuesday.

Impact With Carter Hart (illness) unavailable, Sandstrom made his second start in three games, allowing four goals on 32 shots in a losing effort. The 26-year-old Sandstom has dropped eight straight games, with his last win coming on Nov. 8. He falls to 1-10-1 with an .887 save percentage on the season. Sandstrom's starting chances will likely be limited going forward, assuming Hart is healthy.

MARCH 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tough loss against Carolina Sandstrom stopped 28 shots in Thursday's 1-0 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Andrei Svechnikov beat the netminder on the power play early in the first period, and while Sandstrom shut the door the rest of the way, the Flyers' offense never got going. His only win in the NHL this season came back on Nov. 8, which was also the last time he gave up fewer than three goals in a start, and the 26-year-old will likely continue to see infrequent action behind Carter Hart.

MARCH 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
