Samuel Ersson Extends Winning Streak On Tuesday
2 mins agoPhiladelphia Flyers goaltender Samuel Ersson extended his winning streak to five games on Tuesday evening with an overtime victory over the Detroit Red Wings. Ersson stopped 27 of the 28 shots he faced. His lone blemish came in the third period when Ben Chiarot scored on a wrist shot. However, he was able to shut the door for the remainder of the contest, which set up defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen to score the game-winner in overtime. During this five-game winning streak, Ersson has held a .903% SV and a 1.58 GAA. He has allowed one goal or less in three of these games. Fantasy managers should expect Ersson to continue to see the majority of starts in the Philadelphia crease going forward. He will look to extend this streak on Thursday against the New York Rangers.
