Flyers at Red Wings recap: Maybe shootouts are actually good ... ?

A crazy affair that saw several penalties and two goals reviewed ultimately went the Flyers' way, as they wrapped up three points on the weekend by conquering their old nemesis: the shootout.

What if we got it all wrong and shootouts, instead of being bad, are actually good?

We're not prepared to go that far after this evening. But one of the more wild 2-1 hockey contests you'll ever see ended up falling the Flyers' way, as a great performance when it mattered by the team's two top forwards and another fantastic performance by Michal Neuvirth gave the Flyers a win in a place where they haven't won much in recent years.
