Sunday is shaping up to be an emotional one at the Wells Fargo Center as the Flyers and their fans welcome back a franchise hero and all-time great. Ahead of Sunday's matchup, the Flyers announced who will be between the pipes for the orange and black's showdown against the Ottawa Senators.
After Carter Hart was pulled in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Colorado Avalanche, Samuel Ersson will get the start today against the Senators at 1:00p.m. EST.
Ersson has been strong in the net as of late, winning three of his last four starts. During that time Ersson has a .922 save percentage as he will be faced with the task of stopping Tim Stutzle and Brady Tkachuk who lead the Senators in scoring.
Sunday's matchup is a winnable matchup for the second place Flyers as they take on a team who ranks last in the Atlantic Division and has lost 7 of their last 10 games.
