With Talbot pulled for the extra attacker, Raymond got Seider’s pass off the left wall and skated around the left circle before putting a snap shot past Vladar at 16:14 to bring Detroit within one, 4-3.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to knock the Philadelphia Flyers, because they just drilled us, but they were done too when it was 4-0,\u201d McLellan said. \u201cIf the game was 3-1, none of that would have ever happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sean Couturier<\/a>‘s empty-net goal at 17:56, however, put an end to Detroit’s comeback attempt for the 5-3 final.<\/p>\n \u201cI loved that game for 55 minutes,\u201d Flyers coach Rick Tocchet said. \u201cThere were some things late that we need to shore up, but that\u2019s for another day. This was a huge win for this hockey team.\u201d<\/p>\n The Flyers took a 1-0 lead at 4:07 of the first period when Trevor Zegras<\/a>\u00a0took advantage of Seider\u2019s neutral zone turnover to send Tippett in on a breakaway. Tippett slid the puck between Gibson\u2019s pads for his 25th goal of the season.<\/p>\n Tippett scored his second of the game to make it 2-0 at 12:28 of the second period. He took a pass from Denver Barkey<\/a>\u00a0in the high slot and squeezed a low wrist shot through Gibson\u2019s pads and over the line.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s been unbelievable,\u201d Tocchet said of Tippett. \u201cHe\u2019s as good as it gets in the League right now.\u201d<\/p>\n Noah Cates<\/a> scored his career-high 17th goal of the season to make it 3-0 at 16:08 on the power play. Konecny put the puck on the net with a shot from the left circle that was tipped in front by Matvei Michkov<\/a>, and Cates was able to shove the puck over the line.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With Talbot pulled for the extra attacker, Raymond got Seider’s pass off the left wall and skated around…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":571703,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":["post-571702","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571702","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=571702"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571702\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/571703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=571702"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=571702"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=571702"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
