Mason will defend the cage against the Capitals on Wednesday, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite posting an outstanding 1.45 GAA in his last two starts, Mason came up short in both contests. The netminder continues to perform well in the crease, even while his teammates fail to provide any offensive support. The 28-year-old seems to have finally solidified his hold on the No. 1 job and is unlikely to be replaced when Michal Neuvirth (lower body) is cleared to return to action.
