Daily News | Goalie Carter Hart to return against the Stars following lower-body injury
The Flyers are set to welcome a familiar face back in the crease on Thursday night.
Goalie Carter Hart will start against the Dallas Stars, coach John Tortorella said prior to morning skate, marking his first game since March 25 . Hart, 24, has been sidelined with a lower-body injury and has been considered day-to-day since March 28.Felix Sandström will serve as Hart’s backup. Sam Ersson, who was recalled on emergency conditions from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms while Hart was injured, has been returned.
Thursday will mark Hart’s 199th career NHL game. He has been the Flyers’ best player at times this season, especially in the early part of the year. In 52 games, Hart has posted a .909 save percentage, a 2.90 goals against average, and has recorded two shutouts. According toHart has gone 1-2-0 in his career against the Stars . He is currently on a four-game win streak, which is tied for the second-longest active win streak in the NHL.
Of course, no one likes to be scratched, DeAngelo said, and he’s no different. But Tortorella’s decision doesn’t come as a total shock to the defenseman. Although he said he believes his puck play has been strong, especially over the last 15 to 20 games, he admitted that he has struggled defensively in certain situations. DeAngelo is tied for the 16th-worst plus-minus in the league , which is the fifth-worst among defensemen. He is minus-five in his last four games alone.
“I put it on myself,” DeAngelo said. “It has nothing to do with team structure, partners, nothing. It’s sometimes just a lack of attention to detail a little bit, I would say. And that’s on me. I look back and see it, too.”
