Rasmus Ristolainen scored with 26 seconds left in overtime to lift the Flyers to a third straight win and extend their points streak to six games over the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night.
The Montreal Canadiens are not dead yet, and mark my words, you don't want them to take it to a Game 7. Here are 5 Takeaways from Game 5 of Flyers-Canadiens.
The Flyers had to overcome a lot of obstacles to eventually tie the game in the third, but gave the lead back 22 seconds later, as the Canadiens carried the lead the rest of the way for the 5-3 win in Game 5 to force Game 6 on Friday.
The Flyers had the only shot in the 55 seconds of overtime. It was a shot by Sean Couturier that leaked through Carey Price and crawled across the goal line to give the Flyers the 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center.
