Flyers 2, Oilers 1: Carter Hart denies Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl for shootout win

All eyes are on Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl whenever the Edmonton Oilers are in action. They’re two of the best hockey players in the world, and some even argue that McDavid could be the best hockey player ever. So when Edmonton’s dynamic duo visited the Philadelphia Flyers Thursday night, it’s fair to imagine the main priority for the Orange & Black was shutting down No. 97 and No. 29.

But instead of McDavid or Draisaitl having their way with the inconsistent Flyers defense, it was Carter Hart who reigned supreme in the tilt.
