Flyers’ Neuvirth dealing with stomach virus, Stolarz recalled

The Philadelphia Flyers announced Saturday that goaltender Michal Neuvirth has a stomach virus, and as a result recalled fellow goalie Anthony Stolarz from the AHL's Lehigh Valley Phantoms.

Neuvirth won three consecutive starts before losing his most recent outing, March 3 against the Edmonton Oilers. He has a 16-8-4 record this season with three shutouts.

With the Czech Republic native sidelined, Steve Mason will start for the second day in a row after making 18 stops Friday in a 3-1 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
