The New York Islanders host the Philadelphia Flyers after Bo Horvat's two-goal game against the Columbus Blue Jackets in the Islanders' 3-1 win.
Owen Tippett scored the opening goal of the game for the Flyers. With the loss, the Orange and Black’s three-game winning streak also comes to an end.
A team source for Sweden has confirmed to The Inquirer that Ersson will go if either Jacob Markström (sprained knee) and Linus Ullmark (back) are unavailable due to injury.
