Rested Bruins host slumping Flyers

BOSTON -- It was a tough night all around for the Philadelphia Flyers.

Playing with a nor'easter carrying on outside the Wells Fargo center, the Flyers missed a chance to move into a tie for first place in the Metropolitan Division Wednesday night with a 5-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins -- their third loss in as many tries against their rivals this season.

The Flyers' fourth straight loss after 10 wins in 11 games was only the start of the problems, as the team faced weather uncertainty for a trip into stormy Boston for Thursday night's game.
