James van Riemsdyk
How nice was it watching a Flyer burn his former team rather than the other way around? Of course, last Friday night’s game against the Maple Leafs ended in a very Flyers-esque way, but none of that was due to James van Riemsdyk.
The American forward scored three goals, one tying the game, one giving the Flyers a lead and the other bringing the team within one goal. That gave him 24 goals for the season, but he wasn’t done there for the week.
JvR scored the game-tying goal against the Penguins with 19 seconds left that ultimately let the Flyers win the game.
