LOS ANGELES — In their final game of the calendar year against the Los Angeles Kings, the Flyers found themselves in a familiar spot — win a period, win a game.
Winger Travis Konecny would close the game with an empty netter for the 4-2 final score, but tied 2-2 going into the third period on Saturday afternoon at Crypto.com Arena, Flyers center Noah Cates scored a short-handed goal, his first tally since Nov. 15, giving the Flyers the edge.
