The Flyers made a game of it late (and Helge Grans got his first NHL point) but it wasn’t enough as the Colorado Avalanche held on to defeat Philadelphia by a score of 3-2 on Monday night at Wells Fargo Center. The winning streak is snapped but the injury streak might have continued.

Some takeaways
Grans Entrance
With Sam Ersson placed on Injured Reserve and both Cam York and Emil Andrae nursing what are hopefully just bruises, the Flyers called up defenseman Helge Grans to make his NHL debut.
