The first NHL hockey game in over four months resulted in the Philadelphia Flyers coming away with a 3-2 overtime win. The Pittsburgh Penguins couldn’t slow down the Flyers during an exhibition game at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.
Even though it was just an exhibition, many watched, as it was the first NHL game played since March 11th. Scott Laughton sealed the win for the Flyers with a breakaway goal with 2:20 left in the overtime period.
