No-Fly Zone | Toyota Game Recap 12/7/2025

Starting of course in the first period, the Flyers would open up the scoring here in kind of an interesting way. This is Yes, interesting to say the least. This shot, the ABS play this so well. You can see the pick on Drury there. Lower right corner of your screen. And Jules has to fire this shot wide. Olivesson is in a great spot taking away the lane to the net. There’s a battle in front as Molinsky moves Couturier off to the side and it ends up deflecting right here off of Couturier’s shin guard. This is going well wide of the net. There is nothing Blackwood can do on that goal. Well, the ABS are able to tie things up courtesy of the Carolina connection to Brent Burns as Burns gets his fourth of the season. The patience on this play from Marty Nas. We’ll break this down later in postgame, but you can see Drury pops to the slot which draws a bunch of Flyers defenders. And Brent Burns, he’s been doing it for a long time. Top 10 all time in NHL defenseman goals. And he’ll add another one to the resume. Why not get another one on there? All right, here the ABS would take the lead of the game, the first lead of the game. And it’s the moment we’ve been waiting for on the road. A power play goal. This one for Brock Nelson, his 10th of the season. Last minute of the first period. So critical getting this goal on the power play really propels the avalanche. But this shot from Mar off the backboards. McKinnon is battling. Nelson is battling two abs out. Battle three flyers right there. Nelson chips it through the armpit of Ersen. Thinks he has it but just barely crosses the line. Good for Brock Nelson. His 10th of the year. Always great to see Brock Nelson getting one in. We head to the second period and you know it’s Val Nachushkin’s fourth game back in the lineup since returning from injury and he gives his team the twogoal lead. So often teams focus on slowing the abs down through the neutral zone. This was slower than normal but you can see Devonte gets up in the rush cuz the ABS pick through the neutral zone and that pass across deflects off Olison’s skate and Bushkin body top shelf. But don’t count the Flyers out just yet. Travis Kucknney goes five hole here on Blackwood and Blackwood just throws his head back. It’s a clean breakaway for Travis Kney and it’s a perfect move. He sells like he’s going to go across and as soon as Blackwood opens up, all you have to do is slide that on the ice. He’s just trying to miss Blackwood’s stick and he does it perfectly. Travis Kenki, that’s a goal scorers goal. Sure is. But you know what? We saw some great work from McKenzie Blackwood in the third. I mean, one of the best shootout players will get a penalty shot right here. Walk us through what we’re seeing here. I’m a little surprised that they give this as a penalty shot cuz he does get a clean scoring chance. But you heard Blackwood talk about it. He makes a dash from the boards over. This is Trevor Zagris’s move. Slow, slow, slow, then a dash trying to get the goalie to make the first move. And you could see Blackwood just holds Trevor Zaggress. Yep, buddy. That’s uh that’s going to cost you. Just sagging his head over. Well, in case you were wondering, that’s what I was trying to ask you about here, but you know, we got in my ear and you asked me the question and I heard it. It got answered. A lot happening inadvertently, albeit, but you know. All right, we’re taking a look here at your final stats from the game. They’re brought to you by your local Chevy dealer. ABS get the win 32 and shots were fairly even just because of that third period with the Flyers trying to take things
