Starting Philadelphia Flyers goalie Sam Ersson suffered an undisclosed injury at practice on Wednesday; he left the ice unusually early on his own and was not available in the locker room afterwards.

The Flyers lineup is getting a key piece back. Sam Ersson will return to the crease against the Florida Panthers on Saturday (6 p.m., NBCSP). He missed the past two games with a lower-body injury but did skate after the Flyers’ morning skate in Raleigh,

The Flyers have struggled until notching wins in their last two games, but every time Ersson has been in goal, he's given them a chance.

Joonas Korpisalo made 20 saves for his first shutout of the season and fifth of his career to lead the Boston Bruins to a 3-0 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers. Aleksei Kolosov made 20 saves in relief of Flyers goalie Sam Ersson,

The Flyers netminder made a toe save on a shot that knocked his right skate blade off. Minutes later, he gestured to the bench to be removed and did not return.

The Flyers (6-8-2) will be without two of their stalwarts Thursday night as captain Sean Couturier and starting goaltender Sam Ersson are both out for the team’s game in Ottawa against the Senators (8-7-0).
