Philadelphia opened the scoring early in the second on the power play. Claude Giroux scored on a feed from Wayne Simmonds and Shayne Gostisbehere, which put the Oilers in a hole early.
However, the Flyers’ lead would only last through the second period. On an amazing solo play, Maroon gave great effort and continued to go after the puck, stickhandling and battling through the Philadelphia blueliners. On a quick shot, he got the puck past Elliot to tie the game with around five minutes to go in the middle frame.
The Oilers and Flyers would exchange a variety of chances heading into the third, but with 2:15 left in regulation, Simmonds scored on a quick shot that went over the shoulder of Talbot to secure the 2-1 win for Philadelphia.
