The Flyers managed to cut the lead to one, but couldn’t complete the rally in a loss to the Avalanche on Monday night.
Aleksei Kolosov starts and Helge Grans makes his NHL debut as the Flyers continue the homestand on Monday against the Colorado Avalanche.
Just like it has so many times during this losing streak, the momentum disappeared in an instant and the snowball effect started. A shorthanded goal for the Avalanche got the game tied and was the first of four straight goals. The Flyers managed a small rally in the opening period to trim the margin to one twice in the game, but eventually fell for the ninth straight game with a 7-5 loss to the Avalanche at Wells Fargo Center.
Mike Yeo will be behind the bench serving as head coach in the interim, as the Flyers try to avoid a ninth straight loss against the Colorado Avalanche on Monday night.
