Detroit Red Wings, Philadelphia Flyers and OT
The Philadelphia Flyers defeated the Detroit Red Wings in overtime, 2-1, at Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday evening.
Joel Farabee’s goal at 5:21 of the second period was the only scoring through two periods. He fired in a backhand shot from the slot as the Red Wings were scrambling in their zone. The Flyers had the game’s only power play and didn’t convert.
Ristolainen was the OT hero after a move and a loose puck just trickled by Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon on a rush and a deke lost by Owen Tippett in the blue paint. They've had their ups, and definitely their downs, but for right now, the Flyers are hanging in there.
Philadelphia — This four-game road trip that everyone felt was going to somehow define the Red Wings is finally over. What we learned about them is, there's still probably much to be learned, although Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss in Philadelphia gave the Wings a less than .500 trip (1-2-1).
Rasmus Ristolainen taps in the game-winner to extend the Flyers’ point streak to a season-high six (5-0-1) games.
