2024 Fantasy Outlook

Ersson emerged as the starter for the Flyers in 2023-24. He got off to a solid start, but his play suffered as the season progressed. He was elite until Jan. 18 (.927 save percentage and 1.85 GAA) if you omit the 12 goals allowed in his first two outings of the year. After that, he posted a 3.23 GAA and an .876 save percentage in 31 contests. Ersson will split time this season with Ivan Fedotov, and that rest should help him avoid the rigors of a heavy workload. Consequently, Ersson could be a potential steal in daily formats where lightning in a bottle can deliver positive results. However, he may not be a suitable long-term option for fantasy managers if his consistency doesn't improve. Read Past Outlooks

Cruises to win Saturday

GPhiladelphia Flyers

March 30, 2025

Ersson stopped 17 shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Sabres.

ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old netminder wasn't exactly sharp, but the Flyers' offense took control of the game over the final 30 minutes and gave Ersson plenty of cushion. He's given up at least four goals in three straight starts, and over 10 appearances in March, Ersson's 3-5-1 with a rough 4.30 GAA and .833 save percentage. Interim head coach Brad Shaw still seems to view Ersson as his No. 1 goalie, and with the team playing much better since switching coaches, the Swede could keep racking up wins down the stretch.

PHI

Added to 4 Nations roster

GPhiladelphia Flyers

January 29, 2025

Ersson will replace Jacob Markstrom, who is out with a knee injury, for Team Sweden at the 4 Nations Face-Off.

ANALYSIS
Ersson will join Linus Ullmark, who is sidelined with a back injury of his own, and Filip Gustavsson on the Swedish roster ahead of the international tournament. At this point, it seems Gustavsson is the most likely candidate to feature as the No. 1 option for Sweden, but Ersson is making a strong case for himself, having gone 6-1-0 with a 2.13 GAA in his last seven outings.
