Neuvirth will start Friday at home versus the Predators, Tim Panaccio of CSN Philadelphia reports.

Analysis:

Neuvirth has only made one start in the past four games, with the Flyers making Steve Mason (3.00 GAA, .906 save percentage) the flavor of the month. Still, Neuvirth gets the nod in this matchup with the Preds, perhaps because of his 2-0-1 record, 1.28 GAA and .959 save percentage in three career appearances against them.
