Flyers Goalies, Defense Get Testing Week
4 years agoPhiladelphia Flyers goaltenders Carter Hart and Brian Elliott enjoyed a dream weekend when both shut out the Buffalo Sabres in a pair of 3-0 wins, but next week's four-game schedule is much tougher for them. The Flyers start off the action on Tuesday with the first game of a three-game series against Pittsburgh and finish off things against Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals. Flyers and Penguins goalies must be seeing nightmares already of the matchup, as the two teams combined for 16 goals when they had a pair of meetings to start off the season. Philly averages 3.39 goals per game and Pittsburgh has managed 2.85 goals a night, so these are going to be high-scoring affairs, and fantasy managers should keep an eye on both squads for potential additions to their roster.
