Flyers' Ivan Fedotov: Takes tough loss Monday
Fedotov stopped 21 of 22 shots in Monday's 2-0 loss to the Lightning, with Tampa Bay's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
The Flyers couldn't solve Andrei Vasilevskiy in the other crease, leaving Nikita Kucherov's goal on a breakaway late in the first period as the winner, but Fedotov gave his squad every chance to get back in it. The 28-year-old netminder has dropped four straight decisions, but his 2.40 GAA and .905 save percentage over that stretch highlight that a lack of goal support is to blame.

Flyers' Garnet Hathaway: Not playing in Tampa Bay
Hathaway (upper body) is not available for Monday's road game in Tampa Bay, per the NHL media site.
Hathaway will miss his ninth straight game, with his next chance to return to the lineup coming Thursday against the Capitals. The 33-year-old winger has contributed eight goals and 18 points over 60 appearances in 2024-25.

Flyers' Rasmus Ristolainen: Won't suit up Monday
Ristolainen (upper body) will not be in the lineup Monday against the Lightning, according to the NHL media site.
Ristolainen will miss his third consecutive contest, and it's unclear if he's with the team on its five-game road trip, which begins Monday. Philadelphia will face Washington on Thursday.

Flyers' Ivan Fedotov: Drawing start against Tampa Bay
Fedotov will start Monday's road game against Tampa Bay.
Fedotov has been charged with losses in his last three appearances, going 0-3-0 with a 2.90 GAA and .890 save percentage. He'll attempt to turn things around Monday but could have trouble doing so against Tampa Bay, as the Lightning rank second in the NHL with 3.53 goals per game.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Allows five goals in loss
Ersson stopped 25 of 30 shots on goal in Saturday's 5-0 loss to the Hurricanes.
Ersson conceded four goals at even strength and one on a Carolina power play. To make matters worse for the 25-year-old netminder, he received no help offensively. With the loss, Ersson has a 19-13-4 record with a 3.02 GAA and an .886 save percentage. The first half of March has been rough for Ersson with a 1-3-0 record, 19 goals allowed and an .833 save percentage in five appearances. We've seen stronger stretches of play from Philadelphia's top goaltender this season, but he is a risky play in fantasy for the time being. Ersson's next opportunity to guard the crease is Monday against the Lightning.

Flyers' Garnet Hathaway: Unavailable Saturday
Hathaway (upper body) will sit out Saturday's tilt versus the Hurricanes, according to Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
The feisty Hathaway will miss his eighth consecutive game but appears to be making progress after participating in Friday's practice. The next step will be getting clearance for contact. He has produced eight goals, 10 assists and 218 hits over 60 outings this season.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Between pipes Saturday
Ersson will patrol the home crease versus Carolina on Saturday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Ersson returned to the win column Thursday, stopping 17 of 20 shots in a 4-3 shootout win over Tampa Bay. Ersson is 19-12-4 with a 2.96 GAA and an .888 save percentage over 38 appearances in 2024-25. The Hurricanes have won six games in a row and are generating 3.21 goals per game, ninth in the league this season.

Flyers' Rasmus Ristolainen: Out with upper-body injury
Ristolainen (upper body) is doubtful Saturday against the Hurricanes.
Ristolainen missed Thursday's game against the Lightning with the injury. He has four goals and 19 points in 63 games this season. Egor Zamula replaced Ristolainen on Thursday and will likely remain in the lineup Saturday.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: First win in last five starts
Ersson made 17 saves through overtime and four more in the shootout in a 4-3 SO win over Tampa Bay on Thurday.
It was Ersson's first win in his last five games (1-2-1). He has been hung out to dry by his team in a lot of those contests, and he has allowed 19 goals in those five outings. Ersson may be talented, but he's a rough activation this season. He's 19-12-4 with a 2.96 GAA and .888 save percentage with two shutouts.

Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Two points snap 12-game drought
Poehling scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-3 shootout win over the Lightning on Thursday.
Poehling found himself alone in the slot with the puck, and he deked around Jonas Johansson in tight with a backhand. The points snapped a 12-game scoring drought for the pivot. It's worth noting that Poehling and line mate Olle Lycksell got a huge boost when Bobby Brink was shifted to their line. The trio put up three goals and four assists, and were the best line on the ice for the Flyers. They won't often have big games like this one, and the team is still going to struggle. But it's nice to see Poehling's confidence grow through the game. He has five goals, 12 assists and 50 shots in 53 games this season, so his value is limited.

Flyers' Olle Lycksell: Three points in last two games
Lycksell had two assists Thursday in a 4-3 shootout win over Tampa Bay.
Lycksell really benefited from playing with Bobby Brink, who had a three-point game after being shifted to play with him and Ryan Poehling. He has three assists in his last two games, but his fantasy value remains very limited. Lycksell is a decent role player in the bottom six, but his game is relatively quiet. He doesn't deliver much offense, and he also doesn't offer much by way of secondary categories (four blocks, three hits and five shots; nine games).

Flyers' Bobby Brink: First two-goal game this season
Brink scored two goals and added an assist in a 4-3 shootout win over the Lightning on Thursday.
Brink's outburst came after head coach John Tortorella shifted him onto a line with Ryan Poehling and Olle Lycksell for the first time this season. He'd been skating with Tyson Foerster and Noah Cates for the last few months, and that trio had been outstanding. But Torts wanted to see if he could light a fire under Travis Konecny by putting him with Cates and Foerster. Instead, the fire got lit under Brink, who had his first two-goal game of the season. He also scored two against the Wild on Oct. 26, 2023. The game was Brink's second big offensive outburst in his last nine games (three goals, six assists). But seven of those points (three goals, four assists) came in just two games. Brink has a ton of skill, but at 5-foot-8 and 169 pounds, he's going to struggle to put up enough fantasy value as a third-line winger to be relevant.

Flyers' Garnet Hathaway: Still out Thursday
Hathaway (upper body) won't be in the lineup Thursday versus the Lightning, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Hathaway will miss his seventh straight game with the injury. There's no expected timeline in place for his return currently, so he is likely to be doubtful Saturday versus the Hurricanes.

Flyers' Rasmus Ristolainen: Not playing Thursday
Ristolainen is "banged up" and will not play versus Tampa Bay on Thursday, per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
Ristolainen has four goals, 15 assists, 97 hits and 94 blocked shots over 63 contests this season. He was pointless in his last six games. Look for Egor Zamula to enter the lineup for Ristolainen against the Lightning.

Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Tending twine Thursday
Ersson will patrol the home crease versus Tampa Bay on Thursday, according to Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
Ersson has really struggled over his last four starts, allowing 16 goals on 89 shots (.820 save percentage). Ersson is 18-12-4 with a 2.97 GAA and an .889 save percentage across 37 appearances this season. The Lightning are second in NHL scoring, generating 3.50 goals per game in 2024-25.
