Despite falling short in overtime, the Flyers largely outplayed a Western Conference foe that they’re supposed to be a lot less talented than.
A shot by Dallas Stars center Tyler Seguin gets by Flyers goaltender Samuel Ersson for a goal during the first period on Oct. 21 in Dallas.
The loss dropped the Flyers, who scored three shorthanded goals, to 3-1-1 on the season, while Dallas improved to 3-0-1. It was, however, a much-deserved and difficult road point for the Flyers against a team with Stanley Cup aspirations.Midway through the third period, the Stars had a 3-2 lead in what was a normal, up-and-down hockey game. Then three goals happened in 2 minutes, 9 seconds.
Ersson, who was solid in his 12-game NHL debut last season, looked rusty early. The Stars took a 1-0 lead just over four minutes into the game. Nick Seeler misplayed a bouncing puck and allowed Wyatt Johnston to end up skating in free on Ersson, who he beat cleanly with a wrist shot.
