Stars beat Flyers, 3-1, to extend skid to franchise high-tying 12 games

With their 3-1 loss to the Dallas Stars on Monday night at the Wells Fargo Center, the 2021-22 Flyers cemented their place in franchise history books. Now, dating back to Dec. 30, their losing streak has reached 12 games, which ties a franchise high established during the 1998-99 season.

With roughly 3½ minutes left in the third period, center Jacob Peterson snuck a shot beneath the crossbar and past goalie Carter Hart to give the Stars the go-ahead goal. Later in the third period with Hart pulled, the Stars scored an empty-netter.

In the third period, Hart kept the Flyers in the game by denying 11 of 12 shots on goal as the Stars swarmed. At the halfway mark of the period, Hart robbed defenseman Miro Heiskanen on the short side by making a miraculous glove save to keep the score tied at 1. Through 60 minutes, Hart stopped 33 of 35 shots.
