Petersen was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The Flyers are off until Thursday after dropping a 7-6 shootout decision to Detroit on Friday. Petersen was with the team as an emergency backup as Carter Hart was iffy due to an illness. Petersen is 4-6-1 with a 3.20 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 11 AHL games this season. With Philadelphia, he's 1-1-0 with a 3.50 GAA and an .896 save percentage in two contests.

Petersen was elevated from AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Petersen's promotion could be an indication that Carter Hart (illness) won't be ready to serve as the backup to Samuel Ersson against the Predators on Thursday. The Flyers are entering a back-to-back, which means Petersen could be pressed into service versus the Red Wings on Friday if Hart is still unable to play.

Petersen was assigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Wednesday, per Adam Kimelman of NHL.com.
EDGE Analysis
Petersen's demotion indicates Carter Hart (illness) could be ready to return Thursday versus the Predators. As long as Hart and Samuel Ersson are healthy and available, Petersen will likely remain in the minors.

Petersen was called up from AHL Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Petersen's promotion would seem to indicate there is a problem with one of the Flyers' backstops, though Carter Hart has already been confirmed as the start against New Jersey on Tuesday. Still, until the team provides a clearer update, it's possible the move was just precautionary ahead of the Christmas roster freeze. Fantasy players will want to monitor the situation around Hart and Samuel Ersson.

Petersen was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Monday, Dylan Robillard of Olde City Sports Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Petersen is coming off a 35-save win over the Kings on Saturday but that won't change the fact that he is headed to the minors. The decision to demote Petersen could be an indication that Carter Hart (illness) will be ready to at least serve as the backup versus Carolina on Wednesday, though Petersen could be recalled ahead of that contest if needed.

Petersen stopped 35 of 37 shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Few goalies have been able to quiet the Kings this season, and Petersen even gave up five goals on 30 shots in his first outing against them last Saturday. The 29-year-old bounced back with a solid effort in his old stomping grounds to earn his first win of the season. Petersen's stay in the NHL is likely to be short once Carter Hart (illness) is ready to get back between the pipes. The Flyers are off until Wednesday's road game versus the Hurricanes.

Petersen is the surprise starter for Saturday's road game versus LA.
EDGE Analysis
Carter Hart was supposed to be in net, but he hasn't fully recovered from the illness that's been bothering him. Petersen will make his second start of the campaign after last Saturday's 5-0 loss to the Kings in which he stopped 25 of 30 shots. Samuel Ersson will back up Petersen. The Kings rank second in the league with 4.15 goals per game this season.

Petersen made 25 saves Saturday in a 5-0 loss to the Kings. It was his first game in a Flyers uniform.
EDGE Analysis
The game was closer than the score suggests. The Flyers were playing the second of back-to-back games and kept the score 2-0 late in the second. The flood gates opened and the score was soon 4-0. Petersen is up while Carter Hart (mid-body) is out. He joined the Flyers along with defenseman, Sean Walker, in a three-team trade that included the Columbus Blue Jackets on June 6, 2023. We don't suggest a big investment in him. He may be back in the AHL sooner rather than later.

Petersen will start in Saturday's home game versus the Kings, per Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports.
EDGE Analysis
Petersen was called up from the minors Thursday after posting a 3.76 GAA and an .884 save percentage in four contests with AHL Lehigh Valley. This will be his first NHL contest since LA traded him to Philadelphia over the summer. The Kings rank second offensively with 4.20 goals per game this year.

Petersen was called up from AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Petersen's promotion suggests Carter Hart's middle-body injury suffered Wednesday versus the Sabres could keep him out of action. Petersen will potentially take on a timeshare with Samuel Ersson in goal because Felix Sandstrom is on a conditioning loan at Lehigh Valley.
