The Flyers were in the lead in the majority of the game, but were unable to hold on as they conceded 2 goals in the last couple of minutes.

Ivan Barbashev and Paul Cotter were the other scorers for Vegas, as goaltender Logan Thompson made 26 saves.

Noah Cates and Cam Atkinson scored for Philadelphia, and Carter Hart stopped 26 shots.

“They turned it up,” Flyers coach John Tortorella said. “They throw caution to the wind. You end up backing up a little bit and being a little tentative. I think some of our younger players felt it a little bit, and these are some of the lessons we’re going to have to go through.”
