Leon Draisaitl

The Flyers are back on the ice on Thursday night to host Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and the Edmonton Oilers.

Connor McDavid scored two goals and added an assist in the third period, as the Oilers defeated the Flyers, 4-2, to close a four-game road trip.

After snapping a four-game losing streak on Monday in Calgary, the Flyers close a four-game road trip against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday.

Carter Hart made 34 saves in regulation and overtime, then stopped Leon Draisaitl in the final round of the shootout to secure a 2-1 Flyers win on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center.

Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers make their lone appearance in Philadelphia against the Flyers on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center.

The Edmonton Oilers were held to just three goals, with Leon Draisaitl factoring into each. That was enough to beat the Flyers, who couldn't manage a goal in yet another defeat, falling to the Oilers, 3-0, on Tuesday night.

Now that the Flyers have a win under their belts, they look to continue that against another high-powered offense, facing the Edmonton Oilers.

For the third straight game, the Flyers faced the “win a period, win a game” scenario, once again going up against some stiff competition to start the season. After falling short last Saturday against the still-undefeated Florida Panthers, the Flyers passed the test this time.

The Flyers open a three-game Western Canada road trip against the Edmonton Oilers, another team undefeated with a 5-0-0 record. Wednesday's game will mark a second straight without Ryan Ellis in the lineup, making the challenge that much tougher.

Travis Konecny had three assists in the Metropolitan Division's 9-5 loss to the Atlantic Division. The Pacific Division claimed victory in the 3-on-3 tournament with a 5-4 win over the Atlantic in the final at the 2020 NHL All-Star Game in St. Louis.
