If I was a Panther’s fan, the game really would have made me hit the hard stuff afterward.
Mike Knuble scores the Flyers second short handed goal of the night with 3.2 seconds left in the game to win 5-4.
“That’s a little bit of karma. The puck [on the non-goal call] was still loose, and I’d had a good poke at it. So I guess it was karma that I could get one back.” said Knuble
Knuble had two goals, Gagne, Carter and Pitkanen each had one goal. Carter’s goal is the second short handed for him this season.
Knuble, Jokinen and Gagne were the three stars.
I guess since the Flyers keep winning and scoring shorthanded goals, Hitchcock is not going to worry being dead last in the league on the penalty kill.
The Flyers are averaging a short handed goal almost every other game.
