PHILADELPHIA — In the dwindling minutes of the Flyers’ Tuesday night game against the Montreal Canadiens, with the score tied 1-1, center Morgan Frost was as cool as his last name suggests.
Frost went end-to-end with just over two minutes remaining in the third period to score on Canadiens goalie Cayden Primeau, son of former Flyers center Keith Primeau, breaking the tie to help the Flyers to a 3-2 victory. The 23-year-old Frost collected two goals in the Flyers’ fourth-straight victory and winger Owen Tippett scored an empty-net goal. Canadiens winger Rafael Harvey-Pinard mustered a late tally with 23 seconds remaining in the third period, but the Flyers closed out and maintained their lead.
The Flyers were red-hot throughout their seven-game homestead. They went 5-1-1 and averaged 4.14 goals per game.
