Flyers place odd-man-out goalie Felix Sandstrom on waivers

The Flyers placed goaltender Felix Sandstrom on waivers Sunday afternoon. Assuming he goes unclaimed, he is likely to be assigned to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms to share starts with Cal Petersen.

Teams will have 24 hours to make a claim for the 26-year-old netminder.

The Flyers’ recent handling of Sandstrom has been peculiar. The club began the season carrying three goalies with Sandstrom primarily watching games from the press box as a healthy scratch. Carter Hart and Sam Ersson have taken on the bulk of the starts thus far, though Sandstrom did dress for a game to serve as Ersson’s backup in a tilt against the Dallas Stars on October 21.
