The Philadelphia Flyers played host to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night in the eighth and final meeting between the two rivals this season. The Flyers, who were celebrating goaltender Brian Elliott’s 500th NHL game, could not give the occasion the proper celebration and lost 7-3.

The Penguins, who were dominated last night 7-2 by the Flyers, came out with a lot more jump than they showed on Monday and got on the board quickly.
