Dan Vladar has been exceptional tending the twine for the Flyers lately, but Ersson will get the nod on Friday against the St. Louis Blues. Ersson struggled in his most recent outing despite not being overworked, allowing three goals on 13 shots (.769 SV%) in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Ottawa Senators. The 26-year-old ERsson has a 3.03 GAA and .864 SV% in five games this season (2-1-2). The Flyers enter Friday's contest as +120 road underdogs against the Blues.

Ersson has not played since suffering an undisclosed injury on October 28th, but returned to practice on Wednesday and could be back between the pipes on Saturday against the Ottawa Senators. Before his injury, Ersson was splitting time with Dan Vladar, who had been terrific and greatly outplayed Ersson. That said, Vladar has faced adversity in Ersson's absence, which should allow Ersson to continue his push for more playing time. The 26-year-old Erson has a 3.08 GAA and .876 SV% in four games this season (2-1-1).

Ersson has taken a backseat to Dan Vladar early in the 2025-26 season, due to Vladar's strong play. The 26-year-old Ersson is not expected to miss significant time, but his absence will further allow Vladar to make his case to be the starting goalie in Philadelphia. Erson has a 3.08 GAA and .876 SV% in four games this season (2-1-1). The Flyers have recalled Aleksei Kolosov from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) in a corresponding move.
