The opportunity was there for the Philadelphia Flyers to close out their long post-Christmas road trip with an unlikely victory over a top-tier Eastern Conference foe.
They just came up just a bit short.
Morgan Rielly scored midway through overtime to give the Toronto Maple Leafs a 3-2 victory over the Flyers and send them back to Philadelphia with a 2-2-1 record on their yearly "Disney on Ice" road trip. Tyson Foerster and Scott Laughton scored for the Flyers, while Ivan Fedotov -- making his first start for the club since December 5 -- made 22 saves in defeat. Dennis Hildeby was the hero in goal for Toronto, stopping 30 of 32 shots to earn the win.
