Samuel Ersson is phenomenal, my lord he's good #Flyers
#Flyers, without Hart and Sanheim, clinging to a 1-0 lead over Detroit with about 13 minutes left.
The Flyers still hold a 1-0 lead on Red Wings at second intermission. Samuel Ersson has made 20 saves.
The Flyers immediately generated a scoring chance on the Red Wings power play. #DETvsPHI | #LetsGoFlyers
Cam York is having a great game. Really playing well with Sanheim being out. In my opinion, this is his best game of the season #Flyers
Strong first period for the Flyers (other than another miserable power play). Much more energy than Thursday. Cam York's goal has them up 1-0; Flyers outshooting Detroit 11-6
Flyers have a 1-0 lead over Red Wings at first intermission. Cam York opened the scoring.
Can York is having a great game. Really stepping up with Sanheim being out. #Flyers
Cam York has really stepped up in this period, in the absence of Travis Sanheim tonight. In fact, he looks a lot like Sanheim has this year, in terms of his aggressiveness activating with the puck through the neutral zone and on the attack.
Goal Change: Cam York (5) scores off a Red Wing deflection, 1-0 Flyers. T. Konecny (9), and T. Foerster (7) with the assists. #DETvsPHI | #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/3WBmTw1noK
Flyers get their all-important first goal of the game. They are 13-1-0 when scoring first.
The Flyers have not recalled Felix Sandstrom back, meaning one of two things: Carter Hart will be well enough to back up Samuel Ersson tonight or the club will have to go with an emergency backup goaltender against Detroit. #LetsGoFlyers
