Abdomen
November 22, 2024
Makiniemi will undergo sports hernia surgery next week and will be sidelined 3-4 months, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Makiniemi's injury decreases the Flyers' organizational goaltending depth. Cal Petersen will likely take over as AHL Lehigh Valley's starter in the short term, but Aleksei Kolosov could end up in that role once Samuel Ersson (lower body) is ready to play for the big club again.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drawing interest from Flyers
GFree Agent
August 20, 2024
Makiniemi is being targeted as a free-agent signing by Philadelphia, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Makiniemi spent last season primarily with AHL San Jose for which he went 8-8-0 with a 3.14 GAA and a .900 save percentage. The 25-year-old backstop has just two games of NHL experience, both with the Sharks in 2022-23, and would likely step into a role primarily with AHL Lehigh Valley -- though he could find himself sitting third on the organizational depth chart.
