Let’s talk goaltenders! We’ve talked a lot about the high-end talent the Philadelphia Flyers need to acquire and develop in order to one day compete for a Stanley Cup, and that conversation mostly revolves around top-line forwards, and top-pair defensemen. But goalies are pretty damn important.Sam Ersson showed signs of viability as a starter last season, but the heavy workload when he became the only NHL-caliber netminder on the roster torpedoed his numbers. Ivan Fedotov is finally here, but he’s a huge question mark as a 28-year-old rookie. Alexei Kolosov is allegedly coming over. Last year’s draft picks have a ton of potential but need time.Charlie & Bill take a look at the goalie situation on this Thursday edition of PHLY Flyers. Learn more about your ad choices.
