Flyers sink Sens in shootout after a spirited Saturday night affair

The Ottawa Senators work their rears off most nights, and despite being hit by a bad injury bug — especially on the back-end — the team played an entertaining contest against a much better Flyers team, and earned a point in the shootout.

Marcus Hogberg was almost the story of the night. After winning his first NHL game in overtime on Thursday against Nashville, the Swedish rookie made eight of his 35 stops in a busy overtime, and stymied two Flyers shooters in the shootout. However, his skaters weren’t up to the task, and looked out of gas in the extra frame.
