Dan Vladar smiled as he fist-bumped staff members and left the ice after morning skate. The Flyers’ most valuable player will be in net Saturday for Game 4 against the Penguins at Xfinity Mobile Arena (8 p.m. ET/NBCSP). With a 3-0 lead in their best-of-seven first-round playoff series, the Flye rs have a chance to close out Pittsburgh and avoid going back to PPG Paints Arena. Vladar had an injury scare in the third period of the Flyers’ 5-2 win Wednesday night, but he was able to stay in the game. “To see him get in those kind of uncomfortable spots the last couple of games, you never want to see that for anybody, let alone him when he’s in the zone like that,” Owen Tippett said Saturday. “It’s a huge boost to see him out there, but none of us in this room doubted him.” The 28-year-old had two days of rest before taking the ice at morning skate. “I think he said he’s feeling good,” Cam York said. “It’s the playoffs, it’s all hands on deck. It’s everyone giving everything that they have.” Vladar has been brilliant in this series. He has a 1.33 goals-against average and .946 save percentage.
