Neuvirth will start in goal Saturday afternoon against the visiting Devils, Andrew Gross of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Flyers are accustomed to playing Saturday matinees, but this will be just the second day game for Neuvy as part of the 2017-18 season. He's done quite well against the Devils in his career, posting a 7-3-5 record, 2.21 GAA and .920 save percentage against them in 16 appearances. We could think of worse streaming options in goal for Saturday's 13-game slate.

Neuvirth saved 29 of 31 shots during Thursday's 3-2 overtime win against Toronto.

EDGE Analysis

The Philadelphia backup has played well this year and sports a .924 save percentage and 2.35 GAA through 12 games. A leg injury cut into his action, and it's clear that Brian Elliott is the No. 1 starter, so Neuvirth's upside is currently limited. Still, based on his strong performance so far this season, the 29-year-old Czech is worth a look when given the starting nod.

Neuvirth will assume the home net for Thursday's clash against the Maple Leafs, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Neuvirth staved off eight shots in a relief appearance against the Rangers on Tuesday, spelling Brian Elliott after the starter yielded five goals on 21 shots before getting the heave-ho from coach Dave Hakstol after two periods. Neuvy's upcoming opponent ranks eighth in total offense and is led by sophomore sensation Auston Matthews and his 33 points (19 goals, 14 assists) through 36 games. The 29-year-old boasts a 9-5-1 record, despite underwhelming peripherals (2.84 GAA, .902 save percentage) against the Buds in his career.

Neuvirth saved all eight shots in the third period of Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The game was essentially over when Neuvirth entered to start the third period, but holding New York off the scoreboard during the final frame checks out as a solid relief outing. The 29-year-old Czech has only appeared in 11 contests this season, but his .923 save percentage and 2.39 GAA are solid marks, so he's worth considering when starting against a favorable opponent.

Neuvirth made 30 saves on 31 shots in his return to action Sunday against the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Brian Elliott has been relied on heavily by the Flyers, but Neuvirth was finally able to make his first start since Nov.28. The backup netminder came up with several huge saves to stymie his former team and earn Philadelphia its third straight victory. Neuvirth has only appeared in 10 games this season, but he owns a solid .921 save percentage and makes for a decent spot start whenever Elliott is given a night off.

Neuvirth will get the home start for Sunday's game against the Sabres, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.

EDGE Analysis

Neuvirth hasn't been in the starter's net since Nov. 28, mostly due to a leg injury that kept him out until Dec. 26. In nine appearances, he's played respectably, showing a .915 save percentage but producing an unimpressive 2-5-1 record. The Sabres are the perfect opponent to get back in the groove, though, as they've scored a league-worst 2.2 goals per game while capitalizing on just 11.9 percent of their power-play opportunities.

Neuvirth stopped 10 of 11 shots while playing the third period in relief of an ineffective Brian Elliott during Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Neuvirth looked fine in his first action since Nov. 28. Elliott allowed four goals on 14 shots and is due for some time off given his heavy recent workload, so expect Neuvirth to be penciled into the starter's crease soon.

The Flyers activated Neuvirth (leg) from injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Neuvirth has missed the Flyers' last 11 games due to a leg injury, but he could return and make his ninth appearance of the season in goal as soon as Thursday against the Panthers or Friday against Tampa Bay. The 29-year-old Slovakian hasn't been great in limited action this campaign, posting a 2-5-1 record while registering a 2.65 GAA and .915 save percentage in eight appearances.

Neuvirth (leg) will join the team's pre-holiday road trip, but is unlikely to suit up in either contest, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Neuvirth has reportedly been nearing a return, but this latest news effectively rules him out until after the holiday break, when the team heads out for another two-game road trip. The netminder has missed the Flyers' previous nine outings, yet probably would only have featured in one of those contests over starter Brian Elliott. Hopefully the extra time off with give Neuvirth the chance to resume the backup role Dec. 28 against the Panthers.

Neuvirth (leg) has been steadily improving, but won't be activated in time to face Los Angeles on Monday, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Neuvirth has joined his teammates for the game-day skate ahead of each of the previous two contests, per Adam Kimelman of NHL.com . Once the netminder is given the all-clear, Alex Lyon will head back to AHL Lehigh Valley and Neuvirth will resume the backup role behind Brian Elliott.
