The Philadelphia Flyers, donning their Reverse Retro uniforms, hosted the Washington Capitals in a Saturday night tilt at Wells Fargo Center. Despite a hard charge at the end, they lost to the Capitals 5-4 in front of the home crowd in South Philadelphia.

Both teams started the game in a very even manner, each getting some time in the offensive zone and generating a couple scoring chances, but Washington would strike first.
