Carter Hart Won't Play Tuesday
2 years agoPhiladelphia Flyers goaltender Carter Hart is dealing with a lower-body injury and will miss his scheduled start Tuesday against Montreal. The 24-year-old has just registered his second shutout of the season and was set to head out for a fifth consecutive win, but the team has announced that Hart is day-to-day with a lower-body issue. Felix Sandstrom will start instead, and Sam Ersson has been summoned from the minors on an emergency basis to work as the backup. Hart's injury is a massive blow for the Flyers, as Sandstrom has had a torrid time throughout the campaign, going 1-10-2 with a 3.49 goals-against average and a .884 save percentage.
