Samuel Ersson

26-Year-Old GoalieG
Philadelphia Flyers
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ersson was once again able to command a majority of the starts for the Flyers, but his performance took a dip in 2024-25. He played in 47 games, earning a 22-17-5 record with a 3.14 GAA and a .883 save percentage. The Flyers carried three goalies for the bulk of the season, and all three netminders are under contract for 2025-26 as well. Barring changes in free agency, Ersson is projected to be the team's No. 1 goalie again, but he is far from a reliable option in fantasy. He'll play the bulk of the season at age 26, so this could be his last chance to prove himself as a capable NHL starter. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $2.9 million contract with the Flyers in August of 2023.
Tending twine Monday
GPhiladelphia Flyers
November 24, 2025
Ersson will patrol the road crease versus the Lightning on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Ersson has allowed three or more goals in all but one of his six outings but has still managed a 3-1-2 record. Even with the wins, the Swedish netminder is sporting career-worst numbers in both GAA (3.30) and save percentage (.846) to start the year. With a back-to-back against the Islanders and Devils on Friday and Saturday, respectively, Ersson is in line to make multiple starts this week.

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.
