The Philadelphia Flyers main target this offseason is getting a huge boost on the blueline but they still have other holes. One of those holes will be the backup goalie situation as the Brian Elliott era in Philadelphia seems to be over. So who exactly could general manager Chuck Fletcher target to take over the 1B roll to Carter Hart?According to Sam Carchidi of the Philly Inquirer it's a pretty straight up list. Linus Ullmark, Frederik Andersen, Philipp Grubauer, Jonathan Bernier and Anders Nilsson seem to be at the top of the list. Grubauer is probably not realistic as he'll be looking for starter money and a full time job and the Colorado Avalanche likely won't even let him hit free agency. Ullmark, Andersen and Bernier are the names that could work. There's pretty much a 0% chance that Andersen will be back in Toronto next year and he's already been heavily attached to the Pittsburgh Penguins as filling in a possible 1B roll to Tristan Jarry. It would make for quite the drama if Fletcher could steak Andersen away from Ron Hextall and the Penguins. Who from this list do you think makes the most sense for the Flyers?
