Flyers

The Flyers went down 2-0 for the second straight game, but John Tortorella's men again found away, scoring three unanswered to shock the Lightning in Tampa.

He moved Joel Farabee up to play with Kevin Hayes and Travis Konecny on the top line while Scott Laughton moved to Morgan Frost and Wade Allison’s line. [physicality has helped to energize the team](https://www.inquirer.com/flyers/flyers-john-tortorella-work-ethic-physical-identity-20221014.html) to victory. Laughton’s earlier goal had been set up by a pass from Frost to Egor Zamula, with Laughton burying the rebound from the Russian defenseman’s initial shot. When the team sent him to the AHL, Tortorella fully expected to call him back up. Instead of sparking a comeback, the scrum quickly led to another Lightning power-play goal from Stamkos to make it 2-0. Hart made 37 saves on 39 shots in all, while his teammates helped the cause by blocking 16 shots in front of him. The Flyers still allowed the Lightning long spells of offensive zone time, but they also put together strong offensive shifts of their own. Nine minutes and one second into the game, John Tortorella addressed his team with lots of waving arms and sharp gestures. — The Flyers snapped a 10-game losing streak to the Tampa Bay Lightning with their dramatic 3-2 win Tuesday night and improved to 3-0 for the first time since 2011-12. Tuesday night, two Steven Stamkos power-play goals put the Flyers behind the eight ball against the Lightning in the second period. While they officially notched nine “comeback wins,” the fewest in the NHL, all of those came after they trailed by only one. They also extended their three-game winning streak to start the season, all of which are comeback wins.

You can pinch yourself all you want, but you are not dreaming. The Philadelphia Flyers are unbeaten in their first two games to open the 2022-23 season ...

Might not be the best strategy to try and have one of those it’s hockey games, but that is the chance the Flyers have against the Lightning. While the mountain to climb will be much taller, the Flyers could certainly still do it if they fight and win the battle between the depth players on this team. We’re all familiar enough with the likes of Stamkos, Kucherov, Hedman, and Point, so just keep on thinking about their highlights before puck drop tonight. Meanwhile, the bottom pairing of Egor Zamula and Nick Seeler is so far the worst defensive pairing in the entire NHL at driving the play in their team’s favor. What could have been a nice and cute little story, might end up as a bloodbath in all three zones for the Flyers. We’re not saying we’re predicting the worse result imaginable, but think of some hot-headed kid just throwing wild punches in his first couple fights, getting the confidence that he can beat anyone, and then getting tidily knocked out within seconds once they face someone that isn’t a foot shorter than them.

After dropping two of their first three games on the road, the Tampa Bay Lightning play at home for the first time this season when they meet the ...

The sample size is small -- two games -- but the Flyers' Ivan Provorov and Tony DeAngelo look extremely comfortable together.

“We’ve done some good things in just finding ways to win the games at key times late in the game,” Tortorella said. Aside from the opening night of the playoffs, this is the biggest night. The first came at 1:25 off a nifty drop pass by Vladislav Namestnikov. “Early on in this first week and half, two weeks, it’s not going the way we’re used to it going. “Probably take things for granted with this team just for the past decade, what’s gone on,” Cooper said.

The Philadelphia Flyers (2-0-0) embark on a tough three-game road trip on Tuesday as they visit three-time defending Eastern Conference champion Tampa Bay ...

Faceoffs have been a struggle for the Lightning over the first week of the season. Steve Stamos racked up four goals and five points on the trip, however, with two goals against Columbus and one tally apiece in the other two games. There are several familiar faces to Flyers fans on the Tampa roster. Tampa Bay went 1-2-0 on their season-opening road trip to play the New York Rangers (3-1 loss), Columbus Blue Jackets (5-2 win), and Pittsburgh Penguins (6-2 loss). The Flyers practiced on Monday with the same primary line combinations they featured in Saturday's 3-2 win against Vancouver. The Flyers have started the season by successfully killing seven of their first eight penalties. However, the first unit has been the better in games at gaining offensive zone entries. The Flyers and Lightning will rematch at the Wells Fargo Center on Dec. There was some understandable rust in the first period of Thursday's opener, but he settled in thereafter. On Monday, the Flyers recalled rugged winger Zack MacEwen and defenseman Louie Belpedio from the AHL's Lehigh Valley Phantoms. While it's never desirable to play from behind, it's an encouraging sign that the Flyers have started the season with a 2-0-0 record despite briefly trailing the New Jersey Devils. This is the first of three meetings this season between the Eastern Conference teams.

The Flyers then leaned on goaltender Carter Hart to shut down Tampa's last-ditch efforts to even the score in the game's waning seconds. This marks the first ...

With momentum securely in the Flyers’ favor, it was eventually Cates who gave the Flyers their well-deserved first (and only) lead of the night. As was the case in their first two games of the season, the Flyers didn’t roll over after falling into the early hole. Just after the game’s midway point, Scott Laughton scored his second goal of the season to cut the Tampa lead in half. Flyers head coach John Tortorella lauded Cates’ efforts all throughout training camp, and that has continued in the regular season’s early going. And he did it doing what he does best — simply being in the way. With just 7:16 remaining in the third period, 23-year-old forward Noah Cates scored the game-winning goal off a Lightning defensive-zone turnover to give the Flyers their first lead of the night. The Flyers advance to 3-0-0, and they’ve done so in spite of trailing in each of their first three tilts. “My job is to stop the puck and our job as a team is to win hockey games, so this was a big win for us tonight.” The other came from, of course, Laughton. Wade Allison fed Laughton — the only player on the Flyers roster currently wearing a letter — with a gorgeous saucer feed through the slot, but Laughton’s redirection attempt went just wide of the net. Hart, who has allowed easy first-period goals in each of the Flyers’ first two games, was excellent early on, stopping all nine shots fired his way in the first third. Just 1:25 into the middle frame, Tampa captain Steven Stamkos scored on the power play to break the ice.

[YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXenWaHGZz4Ey4BObUUIyZQ) [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/show/60iLyWd51VnD7JP7F459sw) Three of Hart's six goals allowed so far have come with the Flyers on the penalty kill. They combined to outscore New Jersey and Vancouver 4-0 in the middle stanza. It gave the Flyers a realistic shot heading into the third period trailing by only one. We just need to get our foundation straightened out and try to play as hard as we can the right way. I don't even want to get into the conversation because I don't think we deserve to be in that conversation right now. They've held the opposition to two goals in each of their three games so far in 2022-23. [Apple Podcasts](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/flyers-talk-a-philadelphia-flyers-podcast/id1497383342) Of course, it is extremely early, but the Flyers had little to no outside expectations entering this season. "I think a big thing is being aggressive in our game," Laughton said nine days ago about Tortorella's system. Carter Hart was excellent again in net for his third consecutive win.

He kept us in it, and we found a way at the end." ... The Flyers had lost 10 straight to the Lightning. "We worked hard and found a way to win," Laughton said. "Playing the key minutes at key times, that's what wins you games," Flyers coach John Tortorella said. It's a tough building to play in, but we found our legs. "I think we just lacked some urgency," Stamkos said. "This is a stinger, we should never leave this game with zero points," Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said. We definitely made some uncharacteristic plays in that regard." Unfortunately, it's happening to us a lot early in this season, but this group should close that game out." This was a big win for us tonight." "I thought we had a good shift before that, so I knew their [defense] was a little bit tired," Cates said. "We're just trying to get a win, it doesn't matter who we're playing or who's in the opposing goal," Hart said.

From the top of the right circle, Kevin Hayes fired a wrist shot that was tipped through Vasilevskiy's five-hole by James van Reimsdyk stationed in front of the net. A quick and crisp power play zone entry resulted in the first of two second period goals from Steven Stamkos.

Playing the latter half of a back-to-back set, the Flyers (3-0-0) are in Sunrise, FL to take on the Florida Panthers (2-1-0)

The team will not hold a morning skate in Sunrise on Wednesday, and the starting combinations against the Panthers are unclear as of this writing. They are very much subject to change, and could differ considerably at the start of the game in Sunrise: The final kill in the Tampa game was a strong one.There's no need for the Flyers to tweak their approach. In the meantime, the Panthers retain a strong holdover nucleus led by Aleksander Barkov and Aaron Ekblad. Tkachuk and Colin White collected two goals and two assists apiece on the road trip. Philadelphia is playing its third game in four nights, and the second game of a road back-to-back. Prior to Tuesday, the Flyers had started the season with a 7-for-8 mark on the PK. A regular season juggernaut but a playoff disappointment in 2021-22, the Panthers have made some significant changes. In addition to Cernak, fellow defenseman Mikhail Sergachev (1:08) and forwards Brayden Point (1:26), Brandon Hagel (1:16) and Nikita Kucherov (1:08) were unable to get to the bench for a desperately needed line change. They'd have done even more conditioning skating but a high number of injuries to veteran players forced the coaching staff to keep the available players a little fresher to play in the exhibition games. The rest of the period was evenly played. This is the first of three meetings this season between the teams.

Then not even 15 minutes of play later, after a scramble in front of goaltender Carter Hart with the home team leading by a goal, Justin Braun of all people got ...

We found a way, and sometimes it’s going to be ugly, but yeah, we found a way.” “D-Lo [Deslauriers] got into a fight, Brauner, kind of gave us some momentum and we built off of it that way and continued to grow out game and go that way. “I know he’s a guy that doesn’t drop them too often but he was standing up for myself and for our team in the blue paint and I think that was huge for sending a message to the other team. It was still scoreless, but you could sense that this was just an uneven matchup, so Deslauriers decided to take on the sizeable Maroon and had a great bout. It might not have ended with the Flyers defenseman on top, but for someone whose whole career has been built upon him being the calm, cool, and collected blueliner, it wasn’t a bad tilt against one of the premier power forwards of his generation. It is not a science; it is not some direct correlation sort of thing that can be measured, but we have heard the same tale for decades now that just watching some orchestrating violence awakens some sixth hockey-playing sense.
