Winning Track
The Philadelphia Flyers played another set of 3 games, two on the road in Chicago and Montreal sandwiched around a home game versus the Canadiens.
10/22: PHI 2, CHI 2; Goals- PHI: Burlington (20), Evanshen (4), CHI: Conacher 2 (8); A- 15,158
The Flyers only earn a tie in this one after Roy Conacher ties the game for the Black Hawks with just seven seconds to play.
10/24: PHI 6, MTL 3; Goals- MTL: Mosdell (2), Bouchard (1), Reay (4); PHI: Smith 2 (19), Martin (3), Burlington (21), McMurdy (5), Evanshen (5); A- 6,732
Philly gets out to a 4-0 lead only 21 seconds into the 2nd period, and coasts from there. Clint Smith scored a goal in the first minute of both the first and second periods.
10/27: PHI 6, MTL 5; Goals- PHI: Buchanan (3), Burlington 3 (24), Stearns 2 (9); MTL: Leger (5), Reay (5), Chamberlain (4), M. Richard (18), Lach (11); A- 12,618
In one of the season's most exciting games, the Flyers escape the Forum with a win, scoring twice in the final two minutes of the first. Bucky Buchanan tore his ACL in this game right after scoring the opener. Montreal answered with 3 straight in the 2nd, before Tom Burlington closed with the tying and winning goals.
A complete unknown preseason now has an incredible 24 goals in 19 games.
