The Flyers’ luck in the shootout has come crashing back down to earth, gang.
T.J. Oshie and Evgeny Kuznetsov scored while Braden Holtby denied Sean Couturier’s shootout-extending bid as the Capitals beat the Flyers, 2-1, on Wednesday night from the Wells Fargo Center.
The loss ended the Flyers’ four-game winning streak, though they did pickup a point in a seventh-straight game in defeat. Loser points for everyone!
Early on the Flyers struggled with immense forechecking and pressure from the Capitals as they had the better of the play, but nothing dangerous towards Carter Hart in the early going.
