Joseph Woll recorded a 2-0 shutout over the Flyers on Thursday, stopping all 28 shots he faced as Simon Benoit traded gloves with Brian Halonen.
In one night, there was a fight and a shutout. The Flyers won both games.
Benoit accumulated 5 minutes in penalties in 17:16. For Boston, Halonen also got five.
Every shot fired at Woll was stopped by him as he played the entire 60 minutes.
Wearing a new jumper, a goalie makes a statement. In late September, shutouts are not handed out free of charge.
At 18:16, Matvei Michkov scored. The other goal for Philadelphia came from Cole Knuble.
Each squad fired 28 shots on goal. Philadelphia simply had a stronger behind them.
In the Flyers’ 2-0 victory over Boston, Joseph Woll takes center stage.
Since camp began, Mitchkov and Rick Tocchet have apparently disagreed.
He was listed as a player Detroit should contact by Inside The Rink this week. A respectable response was given to that on Thursday.
Over 16:13, Porter Martone made an assist. According to the same article, he was a franchise cornerstone in Philadelphia.
Michael DiPietro faced 28 shots for Boston, stopping 26 of them. Better than a defeat, he merited.
On the Philadelphia blue line, Travis Sanheim was the lone player to play more minutes than anyone else in the arena, at 26:47.
Rasmus Ristolainen came in second with 24:06, and Cam York led the way with 24:23.
Jett Luchanko and Trevor Zegras each received a slight for the home team.
The other Philadelphia assists on the evening were collected by Jacob Gaucher and Helge Grans.
Through the exhibition schedule, Philadelphia is 1-2. Boston has a 2-1 record.
After playing Boston at home tonight, Washington will play Philadelphia on Saturday.
Daniel Briere, like the other team members, has until Monday to turn in his roster.
Marco Sturm’s team hit 28 shots and none of them resulted in anything.
How much does a preseason shutout actually purchase, then? Acing a practice test is like hitting the pause button on anything in a game that doesn’t count. It shows that you put in the time to study.
Benoit did his part, as did Woll. Tocchet has four days to decide how many of these evenings he believes.
