Ersson stopped 25 shots on 28 attempts on net in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Avalanche.

All three goals against Ersson came in the first 22 minutes. The 26-year-old netminder drops to a 5-3-2 record with an .871 save percentage and a 2.98 GAA through 10 games this season. The 2025-26 campaign has been an up-and-down experience for Ersson, who has won half his starts this season. Ersson will need to display more more consistency moving forward to challenge Dan Vladar for the top spot on Philadelphia's goalie depth chart. His next opportunity to guard the crease is Tuesday against San Jose.
