After losing Ersson early, Flyers get shut out by Bruins

A.Davis9 hr ago

The Flyers lost their No. 1 goaltender and mini winning streak Saturday afternoon in a 3-0 blanking to the Bruins at the Wells Fargo Center.

Samuel Ersson exited 7:36 minutes into the first period with an undisclosed issue . Boston seized a 1-0 lead a little under six minutes later and John Tortorella's club trailed the rest of the way.

The Flyers (4-7-1) came in having won consecutive games for the first time this season and three of their last four.

But losing Ersson as early as they did felt like an awfully ominous sign for the day.

• The Flyers open a three-game road trip Tuesday when they visit the Hurricanes (7 p.m. ET/NBCSP).
