PHILADELPHIA (AP) \u2014 Tyson Foerster scored with 1:29 left and the Philadelphia Flyers snapped a seven-game losing streak to Boston with a 3-2 win over the Bruins on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Travis Konecny scored two goals and Foerster also had an assist. Samuel Ersson made 18 saves in Philadelphia\u2019s first victory over Boston since Oct. 20, 2021. <\/p>\n
Justin Brazeau and Danton Heinen scored for the Bruins in the opener of a six-game trip. Linus Ullmark made 26 stops.<\/p>\n
Boston started play with an NHL-leading 97 points as it looks to repeat as the Presidents\u2019 Trophy winners, which is awarded to the team with the best regular-season record. Philadelphia began play in third place in the Metropolitan Division, and the victory over the Bruins will boost the rebuilding Flyers\u2019 surprising playoff chances. <\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s two games in a row that our third periods have been our strongest periods,\u201d Flyers coach John Tortorella said.<\/p>\n
The teams engaged in a tight checking contest, with quality scoring chances hard to come by, until there was a flurry of offense in the final minutes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are the games you want to be in this time of year,\u201d Heinen said. \u201cComing up, that\u2019s what they\u2019re going to be like.\u201d<\/p>\n

I think, truly, right now no one cares about their personal stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n
