Sad Face: Awful Change Leads to Jersey OT Winner

The Flyers certainly didn't play their best game through the first three periods but they still found themselves in a position to win it in overtime. A couple of failed powerplays -- way too damn cute on the last one -- hurt them and an absolutely awful line change by Brayden Schenn and Erk Gustafsson put the game winner in the hands of Alexei Ponikarovsky off a big rebound off of Bryz.

Down 2-1 in the series.
