Well, that sucked.
A high-energy game and an honest effort by the Flyers wouldn’t be enough to make up for some pretty disastrous defensive flubs and turnovers at the blue line by multiple culprits. While they managed to rack up an impressive amount of shots, finishing the game with 37 shots to the Blue Jackets’ 19, they couldn’t bail Carter Hart out when it mattered, and they couldn’t crack the code on Sergei Bobrovsky.
They lost this one 4-3, and they probably should have won it, in my opinion.
This is the first loss of the post-Dave Hakstol and Starter Hart era.
