Solid 1st until the inevitable end of period meltdown in their own end. I've never seen a team so committed to doing incredibly stupid shit in their own end and not being able to handle simple defensive zone coverage elements. They always lose track of opponents or they're out of position because they overcommitted and took themselves out of the play.

Beautiful passing play by the Flyers, Konecny to a streaking Sanheim, 2-2.

Another great passing play, this time Sanheim is the deliverer.

Flyers take a late lead. And, they damn near gave it away again a minute later. Welp, they gave it away a minute and a half later.

And of course, we give up the tying goal a minute later.
