Philly Leader

Another game concluded for the Flyers on Tuesday, as they played well but ended without any points. Such stretches often precede winning streaks, which would benefit the team as they face several divisional opponents soon.

The Flyers outperformed Toronto in shots during the first period, with a 10-2 advantage. Both of Toronto's shots came in the last five minutes. A significant contributor to this was Ryan Poehling's forechecking. After an error that led to a goal for Toronto on Sunday, Poehling was particularly active on the ice. He forced a turnover along the far wall, showcasing the effective forechecking executed by his line throughout the game.

Tyson Foerster has begun participating in penalty kills, likely benefiting from his line's strong five-on-five performance. His positioning allowed him to disrupt a potentially dangerous play. The line of Bobby Brink, Noah Cates, and Foerster now forms the Flyers' forward line on their second power play unit.

Additionally, Noah Cates' forecheck and takeaway led to Travis Konecny’s second goal. This effort earned Cates a #3 star selection despite having just one assist compared to others with more routine multi-point games.
