### Flyers Gear Up for Key Preseason Clash Against the Bruins

The Philadelphia Flyers are set to face off against the Boston Bruins in Beantown on Tuesday night in their penultimate game of the 2024 preseason. This matchup, which takes place at TD Garden, will begin at 7:00 p.m. EDT. Fans can watch the game via a stream on PhiladelphiaFlyers.com, with radio coverage available on 97.5 The Fanatic and an online broadcast on Flyers Radio 24/7.

Unlike their recent game in Elmont against the New York Islanders, the Flyers will present a roster in Boston that closely mirrors what fans can expect on opening night. The lineup for Tuesday’s game will be entirely different from Monday's, ensuring no players participate in back-to-back games.

Promising prospect Matvei Michkov will rejoin the line with Morgan Frost and Owen Tippett, a trio that has shown considerable potential throughout training camp. Michkov, who has accumulated three goals and three assists in three preseason games, temporarily shifted to play alongside Sean Couturier and Travis Konecny in Saturday’s 3-2 overtime victory against the Bruins. This game will see him return to his familiar spot.

Goalie Samuel Ersson, who recently impressed with a 37-save shutout against the Islanders, will have one final opportunity to prepare for the regular season. Ersson is slated to start in goal on Tuesday, with veteran Cal Petersen serving as his backup.

In a notable move, head coach John Tortorella will step behind the bench for the first time this preseason. Tortorella typically waits until the final two preseason games to take over coaching duties, previously delegating this role to Lehigh Valley Phantoms head coach Ian Laperriere and Flyers assistant coaches Brad Shaw, Rocky Thompson, and Darryl Williams. He will continue this approach in Thursday’s preseason finale against the New Jersey Devils.

With the regular season fast approaching, the Flyers' performance in these final preseason games will be crucial for solidifying their lineup and strategies. Fans will be keenly watching to see how the team shapes up against formidable opponents like the Bruins.
