Carter Hart

Right out of the gate, the Bruins struck for a goal. Just 34 seconds in, David Pastrnak was on the receiving end of a pass from Brad Marchand on a two-on-one, finishing into an open net to make it 1-0 Boston.

Former Flyers GM Ron Hextall is about to get back in the GM chair as he is reportedly in negotiations with the Penguins to become their next GM, according to TSN’s Frank Seravalli.

Scott Laughton pitched in with his first career hat trick in a 7-4 victory over the Washington Capitals on Sunday afternoon.

Montreal got off to a hot start by taking just 62 seconds to get on the board. Brendan Gallagher fired from an angle and Tomas Tatar buried the rebound to give the Canadiens the 1-0 lead.

Calm, cool and collected, Hart made 27 saves to help the Flyers claim a 2-1 win in Game 1 of their first-round series against the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night.

The Flyers' greatest weakness for decades was finding a goalie that had the ability to get them to the next level. Carter Hart has appeared to transform that discussion.

Whether they are frequent visitors to a ballpark or stadium, or just enjoy a game on TV, this is a hit to one of the greatest recreations that people have in life.

Hart made 20 saves in the loss. Vasilevskiy made 30 saves in the win. The win was the 10th straight for the Lightning.

“What is it, two weeks and it seems like he didn’t miss a beat,” Ivan Provorov said.

It’s certainly not an ideal way to win a game, but the Flyers will take the two points and look to build on it.
