The Flyers put forth a solid, all-around effort last night, although they didn’t come away with any points to show for it.
Washington goalie Braden Holtby, making his 20th-consecutive start in net, stopped all 21 Flyers’ shots on the night, 17 of which were at even strength. With the victory, Holtby improved his record this year to 22-8-7. This was his fourth shutout of the year and the 15th of his five-year career. Counting last-night’s win, Holtby’s now won six out of his last seven starts, dating back to New Year’s Day- he’s only allowed 13 goals in those seven games.
