The Philadelphia Flyers often struggle to earn wins during their annual Pacific road trip following the Christmas break, but they took a positive first step in changing that narrative this year.
The Flyers took down the San Jose Sharks by a score of 4-3 in overtime Thursday night at SAP Center to kick off their post-Christmas voyage. Defenseman Tony DeAngelo scored the game-winner 1:10 into the OT period to earn the Flyers their first overtime victory of the season.
DeAngelo ended the night with an impressive three-point outing — he also logged a pair of primary assists in regulation.
