Cam Talbot's debut in goal for the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday night set an NHL record, as the club used its eighth netminder in a single season.
Talbot was acquired from the Edmonton Oilers in February, and his start against the New Jersey Devils this evening pushes the Flyers past the 1989-90 Quebec Nordiques, the 2002-03 St. Louis Blues, and the 2007-08 Los Angeles Kings to earn the unique record, according to NHL.com's Adam Kimelman.
Here are the goalies who have appeared between the pipes for Philly this season:
| Goalie | Age | Record | SV% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carter Hart | 20 | 13-8-1 | .917 |
| Brian Elliott | 33 | 8-7-1 | .917 |
| Calvin Pickard | 26 | 4-4-2 | .863 |
| Anthony Stolarz | 25 | 4-3-3 | .902 |
| Michal Neuvirth | 30 | 1-4-1 | .859 |
| Alex Lyon | 26 | 0-1-0 | .806 |
| Mike McKenna | 35 | 0-1-1 | .833 |
| Cam Talbot* | 31 | 10-15-3 | .893 |
* With Edmonton
The Flyers' inconsistencies in goal have been a major weakness for a team that sits six points back of the second wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference entering Friday night.
