Flyers light up Sabres, stay in playoff chase

BUFFALO - A late-season surge pushed the Flyers into the playoffs last season, and they are working diligently on producing a sequel.

The Flyers, led by defenseman Radko Gudas' surprising offense, increased their point streak to four games Tuesday night with a 6-3 win KeyBank Center and inched to within two points of the wild-card spot.

Matt Read, Gudas, Jordan Weal, Claude Giroux, Michael Del Zotto (plus-5), and Travis Konecny scored for the Flyers, who had six five-on-five goals for the first time this season.

The Flyers matched their season high for goals in a game.
