For the first time since December 9, the Philadelphia Flyers will have their 25-year-old goaltender behind the net again tonight as Carter Hart is set to make his return in Detroit against the Red Wings. For the past two weeks or so, Hart has been dealing with an undisclosed medical illness that he was finally able to get proper treatment for.
Over the past few days, it was reported that Hart was trending in the right direction but still no decision was made for him to play. Last night, Hart was officially taken off of the day-to-day injury list and was the backup to Sameul Ersson as the Flyers lost 3-2 to the Nashville Predators.
Although it's undisclosed as to what specifically Hart was battling, it seems as if Hart has finally been able to receive a proper diagnosis and treatment and is ready to be back on the ice helping his team win games.
