Overview
- Philadelphia erased an early deficit with second-period goals from Matvei Michkov and Noah Cates before Travis Konecny sealed it with an empty-netter.
- Dan Vladař stopped 22 of 23 shots for the Flyers and improved to 5-0-1 in his career against Nashville as both teams went scoreless on the power play.
- Despite a 62.4% expected-goals share and a 19-9 edge in high-danger chances, the Predators converted only once, continuing a trend of poor finishing.
- Michkov’s tying tally was his second of the season and ended a nine-game goal drought, while Konecny added an assist and continued his recent uptick.
- O’Reilly opened the scoring, then criticized his own play postgame, as Nashville fell to 5-7-4 with losses in 10 of its past 13 games.
