Steve Mason – B

Mason got off to a rough start on the season, apparently dealing with family issues. That bad start tanked his numbers, but they’ve slowly been coming back up as he rounds back into form. He’s still got the number one job, and the Flyers will need him to every bit as good as he’s been the last two seasons if they want to make the playoffs.

Michael Neuvirth – A+

While Mason struggled early in the season, Neuvirth was near perfect. I can only think of one shaky performance from him all season, as he gave the Flyers a chance in every game he appeared. As of writing, his .934 save percentage is second best in the NHL.
