Flyers Defeat Ducks 3-1 with Key Performances from Ersson and Cates

Philadelphia rebounds from recent struggles as Noah Cates extends scoring streak and Samuel Ersson delivers a strong goaltending performance.

  • Noah Cates scored in his fifth consecutive game, tying the NHL's longest active goal streak, to give the Flyers an early lead in the second period.
  • Goaltender Samuel Ersson made 32 saves, bouncing back from a difficult stretch to anchor the Flyers' defense in the victory.
  • Morgan Frost scored the game-winning goal in the third period, his third goal in as many games, by banking a shot off Ducks goalie Lukas Dostal.
  • Joel Farabee sealed the win with an empty-net goal after exiting the penalty box during a late Ducks power play attempt.
  • The Ducks continued their offensive struggles, converting just one of their last 23 power-play opportunities and recording their eighth loss in their last 11 games.
