Five minutes in, it appeared that the Philadelphia Flyers‘ tumultuous five-game road trip was going to end in disastrous fashion.
Denver Barkey and Matvei Michkov ensured that wouldn’t happen.
Barkey scored twice and Michkov delivered a highlight-reel individual effort as the Flyers stormed back from an early 2-0 deficit to take down the Columbus Blue Jackets by a final score of 4-3. Trevor Zegras also scored for the Flyers, who closed out their trip — which notably included two bench arguments caught by media and a Michkov maybe-trade-request report — with a somehow perfectly acceptable 2-1-2 record, scoring standings points in four out of five games.
Joseph Woll made 28 saves to earn the victory — his second straight and third as a Flyer. Jet Greaves stopped 17 in defeat.
