Flyers inch closer to NHL playoffs with statement win against Jets: Takeaways

That miserable scoring drought that Philadelphia Flyers captain Sean Couturier was mired in earlier all of a sudden seems like a distant memory.In their latest must-win game, Couturier had arguably his best performance of the season, posting two goals and an assist in leading the Flyers to a 7-1 statement win over the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday at Canada Life Centre. Couturier’s first-period goal upped the Flyers’ lead to 3-1, and midway through the second, his work behind the net helped Travis Sanheim give the Flyers a commanding 4-1 lead.Advertisement
