The Philadelphia Flyers will turn to backup goalie Ray Emery for Saturday's game against the Montreal Canadiens, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
The Flyers will be looking to avoid starting the year 0-3 after dropping the first two games of the season to the Boston Bruins and the New Jersey Devils.
In 28 games last season, Emery posted a save percentage of .903 with a record of 9-12-2.
