The Flyers couldn’t solve Schneider, who wasn’t tested, en route to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of the New Jersey Devils. The loss leaves a bit of a bitter taste before the holiday break, with the team losing their third game in four after their 10-game winning streak. The Flyers had only 16 shots on goal, a season low. It was, by far, their worst effort of the season.
The Flyers were facing their rivals for the first time this year. The Flyers came into tonight hoping to sweep a back-to-back and keep pace with a white-hot top of the Metropolitan division, that has seen a lot of seen a lot of separation between the top five teams and the other three.
