Elliott will tend the home twine in Saturday's outdoor game versus the Penguins, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Elliott hasn't started a game since November, as he's dealt with a lower-body injury and spent a conditioning stint in the AHL. Rookie netminder Carter Hart has stolen the show this season, but he's been yanked in back-to-back games and Elliott has posted a .944 save percentage between both relief outings. An outdoor game will be an interesting return back to the blue paint, and he'll have a tough test with the Penguins ranking fifth in the league at 3.43 goals per game. Should he falter, the Flyers could always turn to Oilers castoff Cam Talbot, who the team acquired last week.
