The Philadelphia Flyers Beat Up On the Calgary Flames

The Flyers scored 4 unanswered goals and the Flames could not effectively answer, as they fell to the Flyers 5-3.

First Period

Kris Versteeg was back in the line up after missing the last game with a rib injury after that heavy collision with Troy Brouwer against Columbus. Chad Johnson was in net once again. On the other side, the Flames were facing Flyers’ goaltender Anthony Stolarz, who was making his first ever NHL start.

The Flyers had more jump in the early going. Matt Read hammered a shot off the post a few minutes in, but then Michael Frolik took a penalty to get Calgary’s offense going.
