My first thought once this game was over was “what a wild game”. Between the third period and the overtime chances, spectacular saves and the shootout and of course Scott Laughton. On Thursday, the Flyers begun their first road swing of the season in a tough challenge facing newly named captain Patrice Bergeron, Tuukka Rask and the rest of the Boston Bruins and this was must see TV.

Possibly one of the best hockey games so far in this young season. With injuries to Morgan Frost and Phil Myers, Philadelphia had to rely on forward Connor Bunnaman and defenseman Mark Friedman who played roles tonight in the top six positions for AV’s club.
