Flyers turn to Neuvirth for Game 5; Couturier returns from injury

The Philadelphia Flyers will turn to Michal Neuvirth in a must-win Game 5 against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday night, the team announced.

The move comes after Brian Elliott, who started the previous four games, was pulled for the second time in Game 4 after giving up three goals on 17 shots.

Neuvirth's lone appearance in these playoffs came in relief in Game 4, when he made 11 saves on 13 shots in just under 32 minutes.

The team also announced that forward Sean Couturier is back in the lineup after missing Game 4 due to a lower-body injury suffered in practice Tuesday.

The Flyers trail the series 3-1.
