PHILADELPHIA — Connor Bedard had an assist to increase his rookie-leading points total, Philipp Kurashev, Joey Anderson and Lukas Reichel each had a goal and an assist and the Chicago Blackhawks defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 5-1 on Saturday night.
“The focus was the start tonight; it was fast,” Hawks coach Luke Richardson said. “We engaged physically and played a real spirited game.”This season was expected to be another rebuilding campaign in the second year under coach John Tortorella, but the Flyers are a surprising playoff contender. They last made the postseason in 2020. The Flyers started Saturday holding the final playoff spot in the Metropolitan Division but are now behind the Washington Capitals.
Bedard improved his team-leading points total to 57 with his 36th assist. The Hawks selected the 18-year-old star No. 1 in last spring’s draft.
