The Philadelphia Flyers Have One of The Best Goalie Depth Charts in the NHL?

Despite near-miss attempts, a top-tier starting netminder has eluded them. The arrival of Carter Hart offers hope, but goaltending depth remains a priority for new GM Daniel Brière.

Intriguingly, a potential four-way battle emerges for the backup role:

Flyers bank on Ersson's potential, drafted 143rd overall in 2018. His AHL resurgence, .900 save percentage, and extension hint at his promise. Waiver-exempt status favors his backup role hopes.

Despite impressive KHL feats, contractual issues and uncertainty surround Fedotov. Ersson's rise may limit his role. Uncertain camp attendance raises questions.

Acquired from the Kings, Petersen seeks redemption after a rocky 2022-23. Experienced but inconsistent, his contract could hinder his NHL return.

Felix Sandström:
Drafted 70th in 2015, Sandström's struggles linger. At 26, he seeks improvement for a backup role. Waiver concerns and complementing Hart factor in.

Flyers seek stability through competition, with Ersson, Fedotov, Petersen, and Sandström vying to define their goaltending future.
