In a game with massive playoff implications, the Philadelphia Flyers grabbed an early lead in Tuesday's game with the Detroit Red Wings.
Michael Raffl picked up the puck in the neutral zone, and slid the puck around the outstretched left pad of Petr Mrazek after driving through defenseman Kyle Quincey. The game's opening goal his 11th of the season.
Fellow forward Wayne Simmonds doubled the lead just over a minute later, as the Flyers look to pull within a point of the Red Wings - who sit in the final Eastern Conference wild-card position - if they win Tuesday.
20 minutes in and the #Flyers head back to the room up 2-0! Also leading shots 23-3. #DETvsPHI pic.twitter.com/kwHczfjHHG
