Ersson, 25, left the Flyers' last matchup against the San Jose Sharks due to this injury. He was in the middle of a strong game before exiting, too, as he stopped all 15 of San Jose's shots he faced.

With Ersson being the Flyers' best goalie, it is undoubtedly rough news that he is set to miss time. However, on the bright side, it appears that this injury will not keep him sidelined for too long.
