Philadelphia Flyers News

The Maple Leafs lost 4-2 to the Tampa Bay Lightning last night and will hope for better results in the tail end of their back-to-back, with Woll tending the twine on Thursday against the Florida Panthers. The 27-year-old Woll entered the Olympic break with a 5-3-2 record in his last 10 games, posting a 3.05 GAA and .907 SV%. The Maple Leafs enter Thursday's contest as +138 road underdogs against a Panthers team desperate to make a late-season push to return to the playoffs.

Vladar accompanied Team Czechia at the Olympics but should be well-rested, as he primarily served as Lukas Dostal's backup. The 28-year-old Vladar will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Washington Capitals, looking to help his team in its late-season playoff push. Vladar headed into the Olympic break with a solid 2.29 GAA and .908 SV% in his last three games (1-0-2). The Flyers enter Wednesday's contest as +130 road underdogs against a Capitals team that entered the Olympic break on a 4-1-0 run.

Sanheim scored one assist in five games with Team Canada during their Silver Medal performance at the Olympics. The 29-year-old defenseman has 24 points (6G / 18A) in 56 games with the Flyers this season and will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Washington Capitals as they continue their push for a playoff spot.

Sanheim was a healthy scratch for the tournament opener vs. Czechia, but will replace Josh Morrissey in the lineup on Friday. Sanheim is expected to serve as the No.7 defenseman, so he'll likely play limited ice time vs. Switzerland. Internationally, he had two goals and two assists in 11 games between the 4Nations (3 games) and World Championships (8 games) in 2025.

Vladar has had a strong season for the Flyers, but it's a bit of a surprise to see him as Czechia's No.2 option ahead of Karel Vejmelka, who is tied for the NHL lead in wins. It is likely due to his strong performance at the World Championships last year, where he was 3-0-0 with a 1.09 GAA, .951 SV% and one shutout. It should be a relatively easy game for Vladar, as Czechia are massive favourites over France.

Acciari is battling an illness and is unavailable for Pittsburgh's final game before the Olympic break. The 34-year-old Acciari has 15 points (6G / 9A) in 42 games this season.

The struggling Flyers ended a four-game losing streak on Tuesday courtesy of a solid 26-save performance (.929 SV%) by Vladar in a 4-2 win over the Washington Capitals. The 28-year-old Czech goalie will return to the crease on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators, looking to improve on the 2.74 GAA and .885 SV% he has since the beginning of January (3-2-2). The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as +124 home underdogs against a Senators team that has won four of their last five games (4-1-0).

Garnet Hathaway will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday, allowing Grundstrom to re-enter the lineup against the Washington Capitals. The 28-year-old Grundstrom has nine points (7G / 2A) in 25 games this season.

Vladar has struggled after returning from a lower-body injury that sidelined him for two weeks, posting a 3.00 GAA and .877 SV% in three appearances (0-1-1). Dating back to before his injury, Vladar has occupied the crease in six straight Flyers losses (0-4-2). The Flyers hope to return to the win column on Tuesday, entering action as -128 home favourites against a Washington Capitals team that extended its winning streak to three games last night with a 4-1 win over the New York Islanders despite being without Logan Thompson (upper body) and Charlie Lindgren (lower body).

Woll was excellent in Toronto's most recent game, saving 28 of 30 shots (.933 SV%) in a 3-2 shootout win over the Vancouver Canucks, helping him snap a season-worst five-game losing streak (0-3-2). Despite Saturday's victory, the 27-year-old goalie has posted ugly numbers in his last six games (1-3-2): 4.05 GAA and .879 SV%. The Maple Leafs enter the action on Monday as -113 road favourites against a Calgary Flames team that has scored three or fewer goals in six straight games (1-3-2).

Kolosov was assigned to Lehigh Valley (AHL) on Sunday, but was quickly recalled again on Monday, indicating that Samuel Ersson (lower body) is likely not ready to return. The 24-year-old Kolosov has a 4.00 GAA and .830 SV% in four appearances with the Flyers this season (0-2-0).

Marshall Rifai will make his season debut on Saturday against the Vancouver Canucks, sending Benoit to the press box as a healthy scratch. The 27-year-old Benoit is averaging 17:18 time-on-ice and has three assists in 47 games this season.
