The Philadelphia Flyers, after an incredibly dismal start to the game, battled hard all night and came from behind to defeat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 at PPG Paints Arena on Thursday night. The Flyers improved to 12-5-3 and leapfrogged the Boston Bruins for 3rd place in the East Division with the victory.

The game started out very poorly for the Flyers as Kris Letang fired home a shot just 2:46 into the first period.
