Sergei Bobrovsky relieved Illya Bryzgalov, but both allowed five goals on 18 shots. Bryzgalov has struggled this series, but the Flyers still are only a game away from clinching a berth into the next round. (Updated 04/18/2012).
05/23/2012 12:12 Rate the NHL Rumor: Flyers will look for a new backup goalie
Forget about the No. 1 goalie in Philadelphia, like it or not that is and will remain Ilya Bryzgalov. But what about his backup, Sergei Bobrovsky; will the Flyers look to upgrade there?
Bobrovsky posted a .915 save percentage and 28 wins last year as the Flyers' starter, but now he's slated to backup Ilya Bryzgalov, whom the Flyers inked to a hefty contract this summer. There's also been rumors Philly is looking to shop Bobrovsky. Those rumors have been of the unsubstantiated type, and the possibility of Bobrovsky moving to a new team and sliding into a starter's role is far from a likelihood at this point. Nonetheless, the 22-year-old has shown enough for a team in need of netminding to make a play for him, especially considering his contract is palatable. But as long as he's with the Flyers, his fantasy value is limited. (Updated 10/4/11)
