Dan Vladar gets first consecutive starts for Flyers this season

The Philadelphia Flyers entered training camp with an open competition in the crease. Sam Ersson, who started 94 games over the last two seasons, was the presumed starter — or at least 1A in the tandem — with free-agent addition Daniel Vladar competing with him for starts.
