As the final week of the season begins, Claude Giroux is putting the finishing touches on a career year that hit new heights on Sunday, as he not only surpassed his career high in points, but goals as well in the Flyers 4-3 overtime win over the Bruins.

The Flyers were able to keep some stability in goal for a good part of the year, until injuries started to surface in mid-February that turned this into an out-of-control roller-coaster ride.

The Penguins completed a season sweep on the Flyers with a 5-4 overtime decision on Sunday afternoon, as the Flyers continued to slowly but surely move closer to a playoff spot, albeit with more performance issues creeping in.

Alex Lyon has a 3-2-1 record this season with a 2.42 goals-against average and .914 save percentage over nine appearances.

A 5-4 shootout loss to the lowly Detroit Red Wings gave the Flyers a deserved result in more ways than one, knocking them from the top three in the Metropolitan Division and back into the wildcard race.

After rallying for four goals in the third period of Saturday's game in Carolina, the Flyers turned in one of their best games in March, a 6-3 win on home ice against the Washington Capitals. The four-point stretch gives the Flyers some breathing room with just nine games left on the schedule before the regular season comes to an end.

A 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets has the Flyers recent free-fall pressing on, while Columbus' surge puts them on the cusp of overtaking the Flyers in the standings. New Jersey and Florida are all knocking on the door too, as the Flyers spot in the playoffs burns to a crisp.

The Flyers were closing in on at least one hard-earned point against another Western Conference team when a lost puck battle led to the game-winning goal for the Vegas Golden Knights. For the Flyers, it was just another game that got away, a growing trend here in March.

A 2-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets was a test passed by the Flyers. With some luck finally on their side, it could be the break the Flyers were looking for to get back on track in their playoff push.

Alex Lyon has a 2-1-0 record with a 2.88 goals-against-average and a .903 save percentage this season.
