Flyers vs. Capitals, Game 5 recap: MICHAL NEUVIRTH GETS A KEY TO THE CITY

The Flyers just won a game they had absolutely zero business winning. But the season continues nonetheless. MICHAL NEUVIRTH.

Remember that third period from Game 4 on Wednesday, when the Washington Capitals absolutely obliterated the Philadelphia Flyers for 20 minutes, but ultimately only scored one goal allowing the orange and black to hang on for an improbable victory?

Well, yeah. That was stressful and terrible and we all agreed that if it repeated itself at all tonight in Game 5 in D.C. that it would end the Flyers season. And yet, well ... somehow they let it happen for 60 entire minutes.
