Flyers' Samuel Ersson: Facing Senators

Ersson will patrol the home crease versus Ottawa on Saturday.

Ersson came off injured reserve for Thursday's game against Nashville after missing four contests due to a lower-body injury. He backed up Dan Vladar on Thursday and will make his first start since Oct 28, when he turned aside 24 shots in a 3-2 win over Pittsburgh. The Senators are generating 3.43 goals per game this season, good for eighth in the NHL.
