PHILADELPHIA — With just 15 games remaining in the regular season and the playoffs all but out of reach, the Flyers tapped into their trademark resiliency that characterized the early part of their year.
After going down, 4-1, early in the third period, the Flyers rallied against the Golden Knights on Tuesday at the Wells Fargo Center as Nick Seeler and Morgan Frost scored consecutive goals. However, the Flyers fell short in their comeback, ultimately losing, 5-3, to the top team in the Pacific Division.
Eight and a half minutes into the third period, Seeler showcased a stellar individual effort, deking around Golden Knights defenseman Shea Theodore and scoring. Less than two minutes later, winger Brendan Lemieux set Frost up off the rush for a tap-in goal. However, after coach John Tortorella opted to pull goalie Felix Sandström with nearly two minutes remaining in the game, Golden Knights center Ivan Barbashev scored an empty-net goal.
