FLYERS   3     BRUINS    2

Sniper Ronnie Meltsner scores his second goal of the game late in the final period to break a 2-2 tie and send the Flyers to their 15th consecutive game without a loss!  The dominating Flyers have only one loss this season!  The Bruins played them tough though!  Stevie Lambert with the Flyers initial goal.  Eddie ‘The Eagle” Higgins and Gary Enmark tally for the men in yellow.  Both puck stoppers – Flyers sub Benoit and the Bruins Bobby Rutkoske were excellent between the pipes.  No trips to the sin bin for either squad.
