NEW YORK - Different location. Different result.
After losing two home games to the New York Rangers earlier this season, the Flyers outlasted the Blueshirts, 2-0, at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night.
Steve Mason made 34 saves to register his first shutout of the season and Wayne Simmonds scored the go-ahead goal in the third period as the Flyers recorded a rare victory at the Garden, where they had lost 12 of their previous 13 regular-season games.
The victory, their second straight, put the Flyers back in the Eastern Conference's final wild-card spot.
With 13 minutes, 51 seconds left in the third, Simmonds scored on a rebound while the Flyers were on their first power-play of the night.
