The Flyers’ season ended today in an 8-5 loss to the Penguins. This happened in spite of a superhuman effort by Sean Couturier, who had a hat trick and five total points. Those included this goal:
And this assist:
Couturier did all of this just five days after getting taken out by Radko Gudas in an accidental collision in practice and injuring what at the time appeared to be his knee. Couturier would miss Game 4 in Philadelphia, before coming back and scoring the game-winning goal in Friday’s Game 5 in Pittsburgh.
