More on the injuries here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRick Tocchet and Christian Dvorak shared their thoughts after the Flyers’ 5-1 loss Saturday afternoon to the Bruins.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\u2022 Dan Vladar hung in there for the Flyers with 27 saves.<\/p>\n
The Flyers were going to need a heroic effort from their goaltender to win this one. They were outshot 32-15. It was a struggle all game.<\/p>\n
Mason Lohrei made it 2-0 with 2:48 minutes left in the second period when Boston had a 4-on-2 rush. The Bruins broke it open in the third period.<\/p>\n
The Flyers’ depth was decimated on defense. Helge Grans was playing his first NHL game since November 2024. Simon Benoit and David Jiricek were both a minus-3.<\/p>\n
Boston netminder Jeremy Swayman had to make just 14 saves. Martone’s goal came on the power play.<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAshlyn Sullivan and Al Morganti shared their thoughts on the Flyers’ 5-1 loss Saturday afternoon to the Bruins.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\u2022 The Flyers already have a minus-17 goal differential and a minus-95 shot differential.<\/p>\n
Trevor Zegras, Owen Tippett and Christian Dvorak \u2014 three of the team’s top five scorers from last season \u2014 have combined for four points (one goal, three assists). Zegras and Dvorak have only five shots apiece.<\/p>\n
As a team, the Flyers are having a nightmarish time trying to generate offense. As a result, they’ve had to defend a lot. It’s hard to believe the Flyers have been outscored 24-7 and outshot 216-121. They were a stingy team down the stretch last season. They look totally different right now.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Things don’t get easier for the Flyers. They’re right back at it Sunday when they host the defending champion Hurricanes (7 p.m. ET\/NBCSP).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The odds felt stacked against the Flyers the moment the injuries were announced 44 minutes before puck drop.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":877967,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[9605,385,99],"class_list":["post-877966","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-flyers-news","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/877966","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=877966"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/877966\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/877967"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=877966"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=877966"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=877966"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
