The Philadelphia Flyers are set to face the Dallas Stars with Samuel Ersson in goal. John Tortorella has not revealed the full lineup, but Jamie Drysdale is feeling better and is expected to play. Sean Couturier and Drysdale will be game-time decisions. Nicolas Deslauriers is likely to be a placeholder on the top line. The Flyers will have Drysdale and Couturier back in the lineup, with Deslauriers, Bobby Brink, and Marc Staal coming out. Tortorella emphasized the tough decisions regarding the lineup and credited both goaltenders for the team's performance.

John Tortorella on Flyers Goaltending: "They are both a big reason for where we are with wins and losses, so they both deserve the net. Erss gets it tonight."
John Tortorella says he doesn't like to sit anyone out, these are tough decisions he says. #Flyers
Thinking Sean Couturier is a possibility tonight. Looks like Nicolas Deslauriers could be a placeholder of sorts at morning skate on top line. F Deslauriers-Tippett-Konecny Farabee-Frost-Atkinson Foerster-Laughton-Hathaway Cates-Poehling-Brink D pairs have rotated.
