The Flyers’ top two goalies were not healthy in their recently completed playoff series against Pittsburgh, which averaged six goals in its four victories.
Those goalies, Brian Elliott and Michal Neuvirth, might both need surgery, it was revealed when the players cleaned out their lockers and met with management and the media Wednesday at their Voorhees practice facility.
Neuvirth said he will need arthroscopic surgery on both hips, and Brian Elliott said he might need another procedure after having core-muscle surgery Feb. 13. Elliott returned late in the regular season and labored through most of his four playoff games .
