Scott Laughton, Devils and Flyers
There were plenty of developments Thursday night at the Wells Fargo Center as the Flyers lost to the Islanders, 3-0.
The Islanders scored a 3-0 win that extended their winning streak to six, resulting in them jumping the Flyers, Rangers and Canadiens in the standings.
Speaking to reporters after the Flyers’ optional morning skate, Scott Laughton said the Flyers “need to get rolling here.” Well, let the good times roll. The Flyers had a wire-to-wire 4-2 win against the New Jersey Devils.
Travel really hasn’t been that big of a deal either. In last week’s back-to-back, the Flyers played at the Rangers on Thursday and the Islanders on Friday. That’s only a 30-minute bus ride between venues and they lost both games by a combined score of 9-2.
