Michael Bunting scores early for Philly, followed by a power‑play goal from Travis Konecny. Vancouver’s offense sputters, managing just two shots in the second period and six total, while key players Filip Chytil and Tom Willander sit out.

Flyers: Overreaction trade Philadelphia must make amid brutal start to NHL season
The Philadelphia Flyers, last in the Metropolitan Division with a 4‑10‑5 record, face a bleak start to the 2026‑27 NHL season. To revive their playoff hopes, the team is eyeing a trade for Detroit's top‑pair defenseman Simon Edvinsson, who has demanded a move before the Dec. 1 contract deadline.

The New York Rangers fell 3-1 to the Edmonton Oilers on Nov. 10, but coach Mike Sullivan spotlights the positives. New York (10-8-1) outshot Edmonton 29‑20, limited the Oilers to just two high‑danger 5‑v‑5 chances and posted a league‑best 89.7% penalty‑kill, snapping Edmonton’s 11‑game power‑play streak.
