It was announced that goaltender Samuel Ersson couldn\u2019t continue. He left after the second period with a lower-body injury.<\/p>\n<p>Ersson had already faced a rough workload, allowing five goals on 20 shots before the injury.<\/p>\n<p>Philadelphia\u2019s own update confirmed he was done for the night.<\/p>\n<p>On the season, Ersson sits at 8-10-5 with a .856 save percentage, so the Flyers cannot really afford more instability in net.<\/p>\n<p>Dan Vladar took over and stopped all six shots he saw, but the damage was already sitting on the scoreboard.<\/p>\n<p>Losing Zacha is a huge loss for the Bruins, and being without two top-six players is definitely not ideal, especially with how close the playoff race is right now.<\/p>\n<p>Previously on Boston Hockey Insider<\/p>\n<p>POLL<\/p>\n<p>1 HOUR AGO|6 ANSWERS<\/p>\n<p>Another injury announced from the Boston Bruins-Philadelphia Flyers matchup<\/p>\n<p>Do you think Pavel Zacha is going to miss some time with this injury?<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Another injury announced from the Boston Bruins-Philadelphia Flyers matchup&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":436440,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5099],"tags":[154,95,5132,530,53582,4512,5,4,53580,56,53581],"class_list":{"0":"post-436439","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boston-bruins","8":"tag-boston","9":"tag-boston-bruins","10":"tag-bostonbruins","11":"tag-bruins","12":"tag-bruins-6-3-win","13":"tag-elias-lindholm","14":"tag-hockey","15":"tag-nhl","16":"tag-pavel-zacha-injury","17":"tag-philadelphia-flyers","18":"tag-samuel-ersson-injury"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/115984753307568394","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/436439","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=436439"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/436439\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/436440"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=436439"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=436439"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=436439"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
