Flyers vs. Bruins recap: Flyers smother Bruins in best preseason performance so far

Even if it is just the preseason, it’s good to get a dominant effort from start to finish.

The Flyers did just that in their 5-1 drubbing of the Bruins at the Wells Fargo Center on Thursday night. Five different players scored and the Flyers struck twice on the man-advantage to end their recent power play woes.

Alex Lyon, called up earlier in the day to make the spot start with Michal Neuvirth sick and Brian Elliott off to be honored by his alma mater, made 31 saves on 32 shots in net for the win.
