November 2nd, 2019 may as well been Harold Ramis’ “Groundhog Day” for the Philadelphia Flyers and Toronto Maple Leafs. Sometimes, the NHL just works in strange, cruel ways where two teams who played similar games against different opponents meet each other and play the same game again. The Maple Leafs played the Washington Capitals before coming to Philadelphia, losing to the Capitals in overtime. The Flyers played the New Jersey Devils before coming back home to the Wells Fargo Center, winning in a shootout with Carter Hart. Now, after the smoke cleared, Toronto defeated Philadelphia in a game where goals were scored at almost the exact pace, ending after an 11 round tour in a shootout.
