Flyers fall to Jets; Steve Mason questions team's effort

WINNIPEG, Manitoba - The Flyers' flickering playoff hopes have almost faded to black.

They moved closer toward being eliminated as they lost to injury-ravaged Winnipeg, 3-2, at the MTS Centre on Tuesday night.

The Flyers had little attack time against a Jets defense filled with AHL call-ups, and they played yet another uninspiring game on the road, where they have just four wins in their last 22 games (4-15-3).

"I don't think anybody is too pleased with this game," losing goalie Steve Mason said. "It's frustrating for everybody considering the situation we're in. We need to be a more desperate hockey club, and I don't think we were tonight.
