The Flyers put an end to a growing crisis Saturday afternoon.
Barely.
Getting strong goaltending from Petr Mrazek, they snapped a five-game losing streak and defeated Winnipeg, 2-1, at the Wells Fargo Center.
Claude Giroux and Andrew MacDonald scored for the Flyers as they halted the Jets’ four- game winning streak.
Mrazek (27 saves) had been either very good or very bad in the eight games he has played since being acquired from Detroit for a pair of conditional draft picks.
Winnipeg made the Flyers pay for Travis Konecny’s tripping penalty as Patrik Laine scored on a one-timer from the left circle, cutting the deficit to 2-1 with 11 minutes, 2 seconds left in regulation.
