The Flyers iced the puck.<\/p>\n<p>With eight minutes left in regulation, Roy pulled Sorokin for an extra attacker. Ristolainen blocked a shot and attempted\u00a0a shot toward the empty net. Tippett beat out the icing but Schaefer blocked the subsequent shot attempt.<\/p>\n<p>Martone avoided taking an icing, skating an extra stride to get the puck in deep without icing it. However, with 5:33 remaining, Glendening iced the puck.<\/p>\n<p>Vladar fought off traffic for a save. Seconds later, Michkov attempted a long-distance empty netter. He missed and took an icing with 5:02 left. New York won the ensuing draw. Vladar gloved a Heineman shot for a stoppage with 4:44 on the clock. After a\u00a0TV timeout, the Islanders continued to skate 6-on-5.<\/p>\n<p>Schaefer thwarted another empty net bid. Konecny hit the post. Schaefer blocked yet another shot. Tippett took an icing.

Hit the net<\/p>\n<p>The Flyers did just that in the first period in particular. They set a positive tone to build a two-goal lead by intermission. At the other end of the ice, Philly blocked 24 shots over the course of the game and New York missed the net or hit the post on 16 others.<\/p>\n<p>2. Pucks in dangerous areas<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0 Flyers did a dramatically better job on Friday at managing the puck in the high-risk areas of the ice. That was a big part of Philly&#8217;s undoing in an otherwise well-played game on Thursday. In Elmont, the Flyers made sure to bear down on the details, and it paid off.<\/p>\n<p>3. Between the pipes<\/p>\n<p>Dan Vladar struggled in two of his three previous games. He was only severely tested a few times in this game but he made important saves &#8212; usually with no rebounds &#8212; on this night. Vladar clearly outplayed Sorokin, who normally gives the Flyers fits.<\/p>\n<p>4. Special teams<\/p>\n<p>The Flyers broke even. They went 0-for-2 on the power play but 3-for-3 on the PK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Holmstrom hit the post from the left dot to\u00a0Vladar&#8217;s blocker side.
