So much for those slow starts.

The Flyers erupted for four first-period goals Saturday night en route to a resounding 6-3 win over the Devils at Xfinity Mobile Arena.

Their second, third and fourth goals all came within a span of 26 seconds, sending the crowd into an absolute frenzy, perhaps the loudest it has been here this season.

According to Flyers media information, it marked the franchise’s fastest three-goal spurt ever.

Prior to Saturday night, the Flyers had been outscored 9-1 in the first period over their last six games.

Tyson Foerster took the roof off the building with back-to-back goals in 17 seconds to make it 4-1. Noah Cates started the onslaught with a game-tying 1-1 goal. Matvei Michkov then gave the Flyers the lead 3:06 minutes later on a breakaway.

Bobby Brink added a goal in the second period. Trevor Zegras put New Jersey away with a third-period goal.

Cates (one goal, two assists), Foerster (two goals) and Sean Couturier (two assists) finished with multi-point games.

The Flyers (11-6-3) have picked up at least a point in 12 of their last 16 games (10-4-2).

This was the first of three matchups between the Flyers and Devils (13-7-1) this season. New Jersey was without star forward Jack Hughes, who’s recovering from finger surgery.

• The offense was nice for the Flyers, who have struggled to score through parts of the season.

But through 20 games, the Flyers have given up just 2.80 goals per game.

Last season, the Flyers were 8-10-2 through 20 games and had surrendered 3.50 goals per game.

The efforts defensively and in net have been huge.

• Dan Vladar converted 32 saves on 35 shots.

He made an excellent third-period save to deny a 2-on-1 opportunity for the Devils. It was a big stop because a goal there would have provided New Jersey some life. But Vladar kept it a 5-2 game.

The Devils scored their third goal later in the period, but it came with just 6:35 minutes left. Zegras then padded the Flyers’ lead back to three.

New Jersey opened the scoring with a power play goal. It didn’t score again until the second period when the Flyers had a commanding 5-1 lead.

Devils netminder Jake Allen had a rough first period. He stopped 23 of 29 shots on the night.

• Nikita Grebenkin was a healthy scratch for the fourth time in the last five games. More on that here.

Egor Zamula entered the lineup for Noah Juulsen, who sat for the first time this season. Playing alongside Nick Seeler, Zamula was on the ice for five of the Flyers’ goals. He finished as a plus-5 and so did Seeler.

• After holding a celebration of life Friday night for Bernie Parent, the Flyers saluted their legendary goaltender before Saturday night’s game.

A video tribute was played and a replica of Parent’s iconic white mask was placed on the Flyers’ net.

• Next up for the Flyers is a four-game road trip, which starts Monday against the Lightning (7 p.m. ET/NBCSP).
