Erik Gustafsson has been returned to the minors.
He was a healthy scratch for the Flyers Sunday. Gustafsson will look to work on some things in the AHL, as he is close to being a full-time NHLer. "I get sometimes where I think too much," he said. "There's a lot on the line and you want to play good. If you feel good out there, you hang onto the puck more. A little bit nervous is good, but I just need to go out there and play. You get down into a bad spiral sometimes, and I have five or six bad shifts in a row instead of just forgetting about [a mistake]."

Gustafsson seems to be over the shin injury he sustained in Wednesday's game against the Capitals. Gustafsson did not record a point in Saturday's contest but was able to block two shots in the win. Gustafsson does have some offensive upside but still cant be counted on in fantasy.

Erik Gustafsson made his season debut Saturday night against the Montreal Canadiens.
Gustafsson replaced Kurtis Foster and was paired with Nicklas Grossmann for the contest. Gustafsson didn't make the Flyers' opening game roster because of a right foot fracture suffered in December during the lockout and needed time in the AHL to get his timing right. "It was kind of tough there for awhile, but you really can't think about it. I was trying to stay in good shape and look forward. Easier said than done, but that's what you have to do. "Now I'm back, and I'm happy to be back, and I feel I've played pretty well here for the last four or five games for the Phantoms," said Gustafsson.
