Anthony Stolarz News
Stolarz made 30 saves on 32 shots in the Flyers win in Pittsburgh last Saturday. Despite very limited action since the start for the 2017 season, Stolarz has performed pretty well since being promoted from Lehigh Valley (AHL). The former second-round pick has stopped 83 of the 91 shots (.912 SV%) that he has faced in three appearances. Tonight he gets a Columbus team that is 8-5-1 on the road.

Stolarz allowed four goals on 24 shots in the Flyers loss to the Senators on Tuesday. The Flyers appeared to have the game well in-hand but blew a multi-goal lead in the third period. Stolarz has now given up six goals on 59 shots (.898 SV%) in two appearances so far this season. He is a risky option against a high-powered Penguins team on the road.
Stolarz made 33 saves on 35 shots after replacing Calvin Pickard in the Flyers loss in Toronto on Saturday. It was a strong showing for the 24-year-old and likely earned himself a start tonight vs. Ottawa. Stolarz was 2-0-0 and stopped 64 of the 72 (.889 SV%) shots he faced in just three games with Lehigh Valley (AHL) before being called-up. He owns a 2.11 GAA and .931 SV% in limited NHL action.

While Michal Neuvirth was sidelined, Stolarz made the most of his opportunities, even though they were few and far between. The 22-year-old went 2-0-0 with a 1.79 GAA and .938 SV% with the Flyers and returns to the Phantoms, where he has gone 6-2-0 with a 2.39 GAA and .927 SV%. The Flyers appear to have a good one in the 6-foot-6 American netminder.
Stolarz has been recalled because Michal Neuvirth is out 4-6 weeks with a knee injury. The 22-year-old netminder has gone 6-2-0 with a 2.39 GAA and .927 SV% in eight games with the Phantoms this season. He has been called-up before, but has never made his NHL debut. Expect it happen this time around, especially considering how Steve Mason has struggled.
Stolarz, 22, has gone 15-10-3 with a 2.45 GAA and .915 SV% in 29 games with Lehigh Valley this season. With Michal Neuvirth our for at least one week, Stolarz has been recalled to backup Steve Mason. The Flyers have a back-to-back on the weekend, so Stolarz could make his NHL debut.
