After the highest of highs comes a low of lows. The Philadelphia Flyers have been buzzing in all games of the 2020 Stanley Cup postseason. Today, in their first loss of the playoffs, the Flyers were handled. Mental lapses and poor execution spell out the result of game two of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinal for Philadelphia. In the absence of Claude Julien, the Montreal Canadiens deserved this victory.
First Period
Only a minute and two seconds passed before the Montreal Canadiens scored first. Tomas Tatar scored his first goal of the game, and the Philadelphia Flyers were stunned.
