Brian Elliott Returns For Flyers Versus Hurricanes
7 years agoPhiladelphia Flyers goaltender Brian Elliott will make his first start since February 10th against the visiting Carolina Hurricanes, head coach Dave Hakstol confirmed Thursday morning. Elliott missed 25 games after undergoing core muscle surgery, but the Flyers will be happy to get him back in time for the playoffs, in which they need three more points to clinch. Prior to the injury, Elliott was 21-11-7 with a 2.72 goals-against average and a .908 save percentage, numbers that will hopefully improve in the coming weeks. The Flyers seemed destined to play either the Washington Capitals or the Boston Bruins. The veteran netminder will need to be at his best for either matchup.
