Another Loss In Philadelphia And Buffalo
from Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer,
For the free-falling Flyers, it was a bad rerun Thursday night at the Wells Fargo Center.
Eight nights earlier, the Flyers endured the Massacre at Madison Square Garden, where they suffered a nightmarish 9-0 loss to the New York Rangers.
In the rematch, it was more of the same: Blown defensive assignments, shoddy goaltending, lousy special teams.
Rangers 8, Flyers 3.
The Rangers built a 6-0 lead in the opening minutes of the second period en route to giving the Flyers a four-game losing streak for the first time since midway through last season.
Stop the season, the Flyers want to get off.
“This team has really lost its identity from where we were at the beginning of the year to where we are now,” defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere said. “We’re too good of a team to let it squander away.”
