Let’s celebrate the greatness of shootouts

What’s that you say? The Philadelphia Flyers played a game that went beyond regulation? Oh and 65 minutes wasn’t enough? And they won a shootout? Get out of town.

Playing their third straight overtime game, Philly beat the Boston Bruins 3-2 in a shootout on Sunday night. The game marked the second of road back-to-backs and their third game in four nights.

Five of six November games have gone beyond 60 minutes thus far. Overall, the Flyers have played overtime six times this year, with five needing to be decided by a skills competition.
