"The Flyers scored the only goal of the first period, Owen Tippett's after a keen pass from Travis Sanheim. Carl Grundstrum got a lucky bounce off Jakob Chychrun to make it 2-0, but a shorthand effort from Aliaksei Protas brought the Caps within one goal with one period left to go. Anthony Beauvillier scrambled in front of the Flyers net to tie the game three minutes into the third."
"Ryan Leonard drew a trip from Nicolas Deslauriers in the first period. That was the 24th penalty he has drawn during five-on-five play this season. A comprehensive list of the players who have drawn more, using the rarely seen nested recap bullets: Mikko Rantanen Matthew Schaefer Macklin Celebrini (He's tied with McDavid.) I whined so much about the Capitals not getting now-Flyer Matvei Michkov in the 2023 draft."
The Washington Capitals' 57-game streak without visiting the Philadelphia Flyers ended in a 4-2 defeat after Philadelphia built and preserved a lead. Owen Tippett opened scoring, and Carl Grundstrum added a fortunate goal off Jakob Chychrun to make it 2-0. Aliaksei Protas and Anthony Beauvillier produced rallying goals to tie the game, but Jamie Drysdale restored the Flyers' lead and Rasmus Ristolainen finished with an empty-netter. Ryan Leonard drew his 24th five-on-five penalty of the season and ranks among leaders that include Mikko Rantanen, Matthew Schaefer, and Macklin Celebrini. An unlucky Chychrun deflection drew comparison to prior defensive miscues.
