Kevin Hayes gets a nice round of applause during the first stoppage after they show his video tribute in the arena. First game back in Philadelphia since being traded last summer.
I don't know much about Kevin Hayes outside of his years in NY when I worked at SNY but it says a lot about a person when I asked him his favorite #Flyers' memory and it wasn't something he did, it was Oskar Lindblom finding out he could play in the bubble https://t.co/IdErG4nOEq

Kevin Hayes thinks he’ll hear some boos on Monday night. He’ll be surprised if the Flyers faithful don’t. It is the Philly way, after all. The former Flyers forward returns to the Wells Fargo Center after being shipped last June to the St. Louis Blues. https://t.co/MQssbhzUPN

5-2 Capitals final score. Really ugly loss for the Flyers. They'll get a chance to shake it off tomorrow at home vs. Ottawa -- a team that has given them fits this season.
Flyers give up 2-0 lead in a 5-2 loss to Capitals, another missed opportunity for them in Metropolitan race. Bobby Brink and Olle Lycksell were benched for third period. We'll see if John Tortorella goes 11 and seven Saturday by using Cam Atkinson and Ronnie Attard.
Capitals defeat Flyers 5-2 to pull within 4 points of them for third in the Metro with two games in hand. They improve to 5-1-1 in their past seven.
Dylan Strome scored his team-leading 22nd goal. #Caps lead 5-2 with their fifth unanswered goal. Huge Lindgren save right before the rush. What a sequence. What a game. https://t.co/RUyxYOqrGp
Caps lead 4-2 at 6:04. #PHIvsWSH
Bobby Brink and Olle Lycksell do appear benched in third period, so Flyers rolling with 10 forwards. This is the first game of a back-to-back set for Flyers.
Dreadful second period by #Flyers, who have fallen into a 3-2 hole. https://t.co/aEly3rhaX5
John Tortorella is FURIOUS after the Capitals score three unanswered goals in the second period — looks like Tortorella is ripping into Bobby Brink and company. #PHIvsWSH | #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/CBiry737ZF
Flyers are now down 3-2 at second intermission. I wonder if Bobby Brink will play in the third period. He very well might be benched for the final 20.
The Flyers held to four shots on goal and outscored 3-0 in the middle frame. It is 3-2 Capitals, who were down 2-0, heading to the third period. Shots: 1st: 11-5 Flyers 2nd: 9-5 Capitals #PHIvsWSH | #LetsGoFlyers
After 40, Caps lead Flyers 3-2 after goals from Ovechkin, Milano and Carlson. PHI up 16-14 in SOG.

Caps take a 3-2 lead with 2:15 remaining in the period. #PHIvsWSH
Carlson with the wraparound goal, and it's 3-2 Capitals. Disastrous period for the Flyers. Tortorella is livid.
Capitals have erased the Flyers' 2-0 lead. It's 2-2 in the second period.
Ovechkin scores his 17th goal (and No. 839 of his career) early in the second period to cut the #ALLCAPS' deficit to 2-1.

Caps cut our lead to one at 4:34. #PHIvsWSH
OVechkin scores from left circle off draw at 4:34 and Capitals are within 2-1.
Brink and Tippett have staked #Flyers to a 2-0 lead in a key game in Washington. Second period will start shortly. @ByJonBailey has the updates.
Flyers up 2-0 after one period. About as strong of a road period as they could have played, to be honest. They've been all over the Caps, especially in terms of their checking.
After one period, the Flyers lead the Capitals 2-0. Shots on goal are 11-5 Philadelphia.
After 20, Caps trail Flyers 2-0 and being outshot 11-5. Not a good start to a critical, critical game.
A power play goal? For the Flyers? Outlandish! Ridiculous, even. Owen Tippett rips one past Lindgren, and it's 2-0. Flyers in full control so far.
Not watching any of the game tonight, but it's great to see Bobby Brink netting his 9th of the season, and second in as many games 2 goals on 2 games since his recall #Flyers
Bobby Brink has 2 goals and 3 points with a +3 in 3 games against the Capitals in his career. #PHIvsWSH | #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/hZGiFOqDsn

Bobby Brink with goals in his first two games back with the Flyers. Flushes a rebound into the empty net. Flyers have a 1-0 lead on Capitals.
Bobby Brink does a great job of trailing the 2-on-1 rush, and after Lindgren makes a huge stop on the initial stop on Morgan Frost, Brink is there to clean up the trash. 1-0 Flyers.
