The Flyers failed to win back to back games for the 9th straight time on Tuesday. Falling to 1-10-0 in their last 11-games after wins.
Last season, the Flyers strung together wins with ease. Including halting losing streaks at just one-game over the final three-months of the seasons. Not losing back-to-back games over the final 26-games.
“It’s frustrating. Seems to be easy chances against, quality chances that we give up every night,” forward Sean Couturier said. “Most nights I should say. Some nights we’re pretty good. Just got to be better.”
With 3-games left in their disappointing season, the Flyers will continue to build for next season. Tonight, Cam York will make his NHL debut. Who got raving reviews from his current Flyers teammates.
“It’s going to be exciting to see him in action,” forward Jake Voracek said.
