Needing every win possible to keep their ever so slim playoff hopes alive, the Philadelphia Flyers hit the road to take on the Washington Capitals in their final meeting of the 2018-19 campaign.
Brian Elliott got the call from Interim Head Coach Scott Gordon and opposed Braden Holtby in-net. Holtby had a 2.94 Goals-Against Average with a .907 save percentage coming into the matchup. The Flyers had to bring more effort and energy than they did in their last contest if they wanted any opportunity at a victory over Washington.
