Fourth-line left winger Tyrell Goulbourne made his presence felt in his initial NHL shift Saturday afternoon, delivering a crunching check that led to the first goal in the Flyers’6-3 win over St. Louis at the Wells Fargo Center.
The play set the tone. The Flyers swarmed the net for a good part of the afternoon and won for the third time in their last four games.
Scott Laughton, Claude Giroux, Jordan Weal, Sean Couturier (two), and Wayne Simmonds scored for the Flyers, who host Buffalo in a Sunday matinee before an NHL-mandated break keeps them from practicing again until Friday.
