Vancouver Canucks

The Flyers followed up a blowout loss in Seattle on Thursday with yet another defeat on Saturday in Vancouver, falling to the Canucks, 6-2, for their fourth straight loss.

The Flyers and Vancouver Canucks meet on Saturday night as the Flyers head into Western Canada for the next three games.

After falling behind 2-0 in the first period, the Flyers scored three unanswered goals the rest of the way to secure a 3-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday afternoon.

The Flyers have a chance to start the season with a pair of wins, and they will take on the Vancouver Canucks in the second game of the season.

It’s no secret that when the Flyers signed Jones, they were signing a player they were betting on to play behind Carter Hart regularly, especially with as many back-to-backs as the Flyers are facing this season. Jones’ first chance to show he can be the player of the game on those nights, especially when his team needs him most, was a whopping success. 

With 27 saves, Martin Jones made it a seventh career win for himself in Vancouver, as the Flyers picked up another victory on the road trip, defeating the Canucks, 2-1.

The Vancouver Canucks come in with a modest 3-3-1 record in the first seven games of their season, including the 5-4 shootout victory in Philadelphia on Oct. 15. The Flyers will be looking for a different result as they look to build on Wednesday's win.

While the Flyers didn’t win the game, you certainly sensed the new energy with so many new faces. But you also got another sign of how chemistry may be instantaneous among teammates off the ice, but can take some time on it. It’s only one game, and there’s no reason to overreact to anything that happened until the patterns persist.

The Flyers trailed by two late in the third before rallying back for two goals in 65 seconds to tie things up. They ultimately fell in the shootout, 5-4, to the Vancouver Canucks in Friday's season opener.

The Flyers open things up on Friday night at Wells Fargo Center going against the Vancouver Canucks. After last season, it's already refreshing for the Flyers to be facing a team from the Western Conference that they haven't seen in quite some time. It also marks the first chance for this new group of players to make their mark on the team and start the season off on a positive note.
