The Washington Capitals laid an egg against their Metro Division rivals, the Philadelphia Flyers. Giveaways, odd man rushes, and defensive zone breakdowns doomed the Caps as Philipp Grubauer could not be superhuman enough to stem the tide.
The Flyers out-shot the Caps 35 to 28 and out-attempted them at five-on-five 51 to 43.
