Petersen has struggled in limited action with the Flyers this season, notably allowing seven goals on 32 shots (.781 SV%) in his last outing, a 7-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday. In five appearances with the Flyers, Petersen has an ugly 3.90 GAA, .864 SV%, and 2-2-0 record. The Flyers will continue to rely on Samuel Ersson down the stretch.
With Carter Hart being granted an indefinite leave of absence, Cal Petersen has been recalled from Lehigh Valley (AHL) on Tuesday. The 29-year-old veteran netminder returns to the NHL for a second time this season after posting 1-1-0 record, 3.50 GAA and .896 SV% the last time Hart was out.
The Flyers finished their pre-Christmas schedule on Friday, so they have sent a couple of players back to the AHL. With Carter Hart back healthy, Petersen will likely remain in the AHL once the schedule resumes next week. Petersen has gone 4-6-1 with a 3.20 GAA and .898 SV% in 11 games with Lehigh Valley this season.
Petersen has been called up again from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms of the AHL, a semi-regular occurrence over the last month as Carter Hart has battled several injuries and is currently not able to play due to an illness. Petersen has a 3.50 GAA and .896 SV% in two games with the Flyers this season (1-1-0) and will serve as the backup to Samuel Ersson on Thursday.
Petersen has a 4-6-1 record, .898 SV% and 3.20 GAA in 11 games with Lehigh Valley (AHL) this season and has been recalled to Philadelphia for a second time this season.

Petersen recorded his first victory in nearly a calendar year, saving 35 of 37 shots (.946 SV%) in a 4-2 victory over his former team, the Los Angeles Kings. Petersen being loaned to Lehigh Valley (AHL) is a likely sign that Carter Hart is on the verge of returning to the Flyers lineup.
With Carter Hart suffering a mid-body injury in Wednesday's game, Petersen earns the call-up where he'll likely split the Flyers' Friday/Saturday back-to-back with Samuel Ersson. Petersen, who was acquired from the Kings in the offseason, has got 1-3-0 with a 3.76 GAA and .884 SV% in four AHL games this season.
Petersen has been traded to Philadelphia in a three-team, five player, three draft-pick trade that also involved the Columbus Blue Jackets.

He has 101career NHL games played under his belt across five professional seasons.

He takes on the New York Rangers who rank fifth in the NHL in shots per game (34.6) but 20th in goals per game (2.95).
Petersen stopped 18 of 21 shots (.857 SV%) to pick up an easy 4-3 victory over Detroit his last time out.

He takes on the high-scoring Edmonton Oilers who rank fourth in the NHL with 3.69 goals per game.
