Flyers' Michal Neuvirth: Hoping to stay hot in day games Saturday

Neuvirth will defend the cage Saturday afternoon, facing the Blue Jackets on the road, Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Analysis:

The Flyers are no stranger to matinees, as this will be Neuvirth's sixth day appearance in 27 contests. He's gone 2-1-1 with a 2.11 GAA and .926 save percentage in day games this season, which is remarkable considering that he's at a 2.91 GAA and .887 save percentage on the season. Still, the Blue Jackets are tied with Nashville in home scoring at 3.22 goals per contest, meaning Neuvy could be in for a wild ride.
