It was high time for Minnesota to win once again to stay on course for the playoffs. Before the guest appearance in Philadelphia, Kevin Fiala’s team had lost four times in a row.
Two goals in five seconds
Minnesota were also under pressure in Philadelphia, trailing 3-4 after the second period. But within five seconds, Minnesota averted another loss. First, Matt Boldy met Fiala’s pass in the 53rd minute to make it 4:4, then Jonas Brondin completed it to make it 5:4.
The 25-year-old Fiala had already provided the decisive template for the 3:3 equaliser. The Zuzwiler has 17 goals and 29 assists after 52 games this season.
Minnesota ranks third in the Central Division table behind Colorado and St. Louis. Philadelphia is last in the metropolitan division.
