Kolosov and the Flyers have now won three straight, four of their last five, and have their second five-game point streak in 12 games. Not too shabby.
After a shaky beginning to his NHL career, in which he lost his first four starts, the Flyers goalie has become a force between the pipes. Dialed in all night — and thanks to the guys in front of him putting together an impressive showing — Kolosov and the Flyers have now won three straight, capped off by a 3-2 overtime win on Saturday against the St. Louis Blues.
The scoring came quick in the third after the Flyers took a 1-0 lead less than halfway through the opening frame. In the second period, the Blues stepped up their game and had 22 shot attempts, with Kolosov needing to save just nine. This time he got some help from his buddies. Cam York got his stick in front of a Justin Faulk chance on a power play from the left circle.
