The series now shifts to Game 3 where Montreal will be the home team. Someone in the series will emerge with a 2-1 lead and a chance to take a commanding lead in the series in just a few days. For the Flyers, who certainly felt embarrassed by the result on Friday afternoon, this is a time for redemption, for a bounce-back game that could help them in the series. Game 3 is set for 8 p.m.

A pair of goals in the first period - before the Flyers could even get a shot on goal - and two more in the second paced the Canadiens to a 5-0 rout of the Flyers, evening the series at one.

The Flyers didn't have their best in Game 1, but came away with the 2-1 win in large part due to their goaltender. On Friday afternoon, they have a chance to really establish themselves in the series. Game 2 is set for 3 p.m.

The first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs get underway for the Philadelphia Flyers as they play the Montreal Canadiens in Game 1 on Wednesday night at 8 p.m.
