Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) – Steve Mason stopped 35-of-36 shots to
earn his first win of the season, while Jakub Voracek tallied twice as
Philadelphia topped Edmonton by a 4-1 count on Tuesday.
Entering play, Mason was 0-4-1 with a 3.55 goals-against average along with an
.887 save percentage, and the only game in which he participated that the
Orange and Black won, was a 6-5 overtime decision on Oct. 18 in Dallas where
he was pulled after allowing four goals on 18 shots in two periods.
Pierre-Edouard Bellemare and Luke Schenn also lit the lamp for the Flyers, who
kicked off a four-game homestand on the right note.
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins supplied the lone offense for the Oilers, who began a
five-game road trip. Viktor Fasth surrendered all four markers on just 25
shots.
