Petersen signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Wild on Wednesday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen had a 3.14 GAA and an .885 save percentage across 31 regular-season appearances with AHL Lehigh Valley in 2024-25. Although he signed a one-way contract, the 30-year-old still has a tough battle ahead of him for the backup role in Minnesota behind Filip Gustavsson. The 22-year-old Jesper Wallstedt will also be fighting for the No. 2 spot during training camp and is favored to win the job. If Petersen loses that battle, he will probably be the first goaltender summoned in the event of an injury, though Petersen would have to clear waivers before he can be sent to the minors.

The Flyers assigned Petersen to AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen was placed on waivers by the Flyers on Wednesday, and he'll officially head to the minors ahead of the regular season. He made 28 regular-season appearances for Philadelphia last year and posted a 2-2-0 record, 3.90 GAA and .864 save percentage.

Petersen was placed on waivers Wednesday, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen had a 2.71 GAA and a .902 save percentage in 28 regular-season appearances with AHL Lehigh Valley last year. The 29-year-old netminder has a 46-44-10 record, 2.96 GAA and .903 save percentage across 106 career NHL games.

Petersen was put on waivers Wednesday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen has struggled with the Flyers, posting a 2-2-0 record, 3.90 GAA and .864 save percentage in five contests this year. If he clears waivers, the Flyers might send him to AHL Lehigh Valley and summon Felix Sandstrom to serve as Samuel Ersson's new understudy. It's also worth noting that Philadelphia doesn't play again until Friday versus Washington, so the Flyers could send Petersen briefly to the minors and still recall him in time for that contest.

Petersen turned aside 25 of 32 shots in Sunday's 7-6 loss to Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

The Flyers grabbed an early 1-0 lead in the first period but were playing from behind most of the rest of the game, as any momentum they built got quickly undercut by another Penguins goal. Petersen has appeared in only three games since returning to the NHL in late January, going 1-1-0 and giving up 11 goals on 65 shots (.831 save percentage). He's little threat to Samuel Ersson's hold on the No. 1 job in the crease.

Petersen will defend the road goal Sunday versus the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen will get the second half of Philadelphia's back-to-back after Samuel Ersson played in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rangers. The 29-year-old Petersen has stopped 89 of 100 shots in four appearances this season en route to a 2-1-0 record. Pittsburgh is tied for 21st in the league this campaign with 2.91 goals per contest.

Petersen stopped 17 of 19 shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

The Flyers' defensive structure helped shelter Petersen in his first action in two weeks. The 29-year-old twice allowed the Kraken to tie the game, but the third time was the charm for protecting a lead. Petersen has allowed 11 goals over four appearances while going 2-1-0 at the NHL level this season. Samuel Ersson figures to see most of the starts unless the Flyers can work out a trade for a goalie as they continue to defy expectations by contending in the Eastern Conference.

Petersen will defend the home crease versus Seattle on Saturday, according to Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen will make his third start of the season. He last played in relief of Samuel Ersson on Jan. 27, stopping 12 of 14 shots in a 6-2 loss to the Bruins. Petersen is 1-1-0 with a 3.38 GAA and an .889 save percentage in three NHL outings this campaign. The Kraken have averaged 2.78 goals, 27th in the NHL this season.

Petersen turned aside 12 of 14 shots after replacing Samuel Ersson to begin the second period of Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

In his first NHL action since Nov. 11, Petersen didn't play poorly, but the Flyers were already down 4-0 when he entered the game. Ersson is struggling heading into the All-Star break and Carter Hart (personal) is away from the team indefinitely, so Petersen could get a chance to carve out a bigger role once the Flyers resume play in February.

Petersen was summoned from AHL Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Petersen will occupy the backup role behind Samuel Ersson on Tuesday against Tampa Bay after Carter Hart (personal) was granted an indefinite leave of absence. The 29-year-old Petersen has stopped 60 of 67 shots in two NHL outings this campaign en route to a 1-1-0 record.
