Sharp in win Ersson stopped 20 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 victory over the Panthers.

Impact Ersson stood tall against an unusually muted Florida offense, allowing just a power-play goal to Carter Verhaeghe in the first period before blanking the Panthers over the final two frames. The 24-year-old Ersson had been struggling heading into the All-Star break, dropping four straight starts since taking over the starting job, posting an ugly .819 save percentage in that span. With Tuesday's victory, Ersson improved to 13-9-3 with a .900 save percentage and 2.53 GAA on the season. The Flyers are back in action at home against the Jets on Thursday.

Starting Tuesday Ersson will guard the road goal versus the Panthers on Tuesday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

Impact Ersson stumbled into the All-Star break with four straight losses, allowing 15 goals on 83 shots in that span. The 24-year-old will have a tough assignment after the break, as the Panthers rode a four-game winning streak into their bye week.

Gets early hook Saturday Ersson gave up four goals on 14 shots before being replaced by Cal Petersen to begin the second period of Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Bruins.

Impact All four goals came in a little over four minutes late in the frame, prompting the switch between the pipes. Ersson may be wearing down under the workload of being Philly's No. 1 netminder -- he's lost four straight starts, giving up 15 goals on 83 shots over that stretch. He'll get a rest over the All-Star break, but the 24-year-old may begin ceding start to other options like Petersen or Felix Sandstrom once the Flyers resume play.

Tending twine Saturday Ersson will patrol the home crease Saturday against Boston, per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.

Impact Ersson has lost his past three starts, surrendering 11 goals on 69 shots during that span. He has a 12-8-3 record this season with three shutouts, a 2.46 GAA and a .902 save percentage through 24 games played. The Bruins rank sixth in the league this campaign with 3.44 goals per contest.

Gets no help in loss Ersson made 14 saves in Thursday's 3-0 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact All three tallies came in the second period as the Philly defense gave up some prime scoring chances, including on an Andrew Copp shorthanded goal when it was hard to tell which team was down a skater. Ersson has lost three straight starts and given up 11 goals on 69 shots (.841 save percentage) while doing it, but the 24-year-old seems entrenched for now as the Flyers' No. 1 netminder.

Starting in Detroit Ersson will defend the road goal against the Red Wings on Thursday.

Impact Ersson struggled in his last start Tuesday against Tampa Bay, surrendering four goals on just 19 shots en route to a 6-3 defeat. He'll try to shake off that poor performance and snap his personal two-game losing streak in a road matchup with a Detroit team that's averaging 3.63 goals per game at home this season, seventh in the NHL.

Shocked by Bolts Ersson stopped 15 of 19 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Tampa Bay's final two tallies were scored into an empty net. While Ersson's save percentage on the night was poor, two of the pucks that beat him came while the Flyers were shorthanded, and a third found the back of the net a split second after another Bolts power play had just ended. With Carter Hart (personal) away from the team indefinitely, Ersson is locked into the top job in the crease for Philadelphia -- a spot the 24-year-old has earned by posting a 2.25 GAA and .916 save percentage over 15 appearances since the beginning of December.

Taking on Tampa Bay Ersson will guard the home goal versus the Lightning on Tuesday.

Impact Ersson wasn't great in his last start Sunday against Ottawa, surrendering four goals on 33 shots en route to a 5-3 defeat. He'll try to get back in the win column in a home matchup with a Tampa Bay team that's 9-13-2 on the road this year.

JANUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Fades late against Sens Ersson stopped 29 of 33 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Senators.

Impact Ottawa's final goal was scored into an empty net. The Flyers were up 3-1 midway through the second period, but Ersson couldn't make the lead hold up, although he didn't get much help from his defense. It's the first time since late October the 24-year-old netminder has given up more than three goals in an outing, and through six appearances in January he's 3-1-1 with a .928 save percentage.

Starting vs. Senators Ersson will guard the home net Sunday against Ottawa, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Impact Ersson allowed a goal on eight shots in relief of Carter Hart against Colorado on Saturday. Prior to that, the 24-year-old Ersson had won three straight starts, allowing just three goals on 69 shots in that span. He'll face a Senators team that's averaging 3.34 goals per game.

JANUARY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Needed in relief Saturday Ersson stopped eight of nine shots he faced after replacing Carter Hart to begin the third period of Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact The one goal Ersson did allow came on a Colorado power play, and Philadelphia had rallied to within a goal after the switch between the pipes. The 24-year-old has been the team's best netminder this season, and since the beginning of December he's gone 8-2-2 in 13 appearances with a 1.95 GAA and .927 save percentage. Ersson and Hart have been working in a timeshare of late, but it may not be long before coach John Tortorella gives Ersson a clear look as the starter.

JANUARY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Delivers third straight win Ersson made 14 saves in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Stars.

Impact The 24-year-old netminder saw his shutout bid slip away in the second period on a Tyler Seguin tally, but Ersson otherwise shut down what little offense Dallas could muster. He's won three straight starts and has taken just one regulation loss since Christmas, going 4-1-1 with a dazzling 1.55 GAA and .939 save percentage, and Ersson's strong play has pushed him into a timeshare with Carter Hart. If Ersson stays hot, he could claim the top job in the Philly crease, as Hart has a 2.82 GAA and .908 save percentage during that same period.

JANUARY 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting at home Ersson will defend the home crease versus Dallas on Thursday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Ersson has been outstanding this season, as he has not given up more than three goals in a game since Oct. 28. Ersson has won two straight games, including a shutout in Winnipeg in his last start Jan. 13, stopping 35 shots. He is 11-5-3 with a 2.33 GAA and a .910 save percentage. Ersson will have his hands full against the Stars, who have found the back of the net 16o times, third in the NHL.
