On a Wednesday night in Philadelphia, the Flyers followed up a narrow loss to an Avalanche with a blowout defeat to the Hurricanes. If Monday night’s game against the Avalanche was a well-played loss where the Flyers’ lack of high end talent reared its ugly head, the loss against the Hurricanes was the Flyers getting outplayed significantly in every facet. Ultimately, the loss is now the Flyers ninth loss in their last 10 games versus the Canes, as Carolina continues to be the Flyers toughest matchup.
