“We really got up for this game,” goaltender Brian Elliott explained after the Flyers 3-0 victory against Pittsburgh Tuesday night.

“Got up” was a drastic understatement by Elliott, who recorded his first shutout of the season.

Last night, Philadelphia fans witnessed one of the most complete performances by the Flyers this season. With and without the puck, the orange and black were playing as a team, moving to space, and staying patient. The Flyers were simply the better team overall, but what stood out was their defensive play.
