Simmonds and Giroux have two points each to lift Flyers over Oilers
EDMONTON — The Philadelphia Flyers hope they are finally turning things around.
Wayne Simmonds had a goal and an assist and Claude Giroux added a pair of helpers as the Flyers won their second game in a row, defeating the Edmonton Oilers 4-2 on Wednesday.
Jordan Weal, Dale Weise and Michael Raffl also scored for the Flyers (10-11-7), who won consecutive games for only the second time this season, coming on the heels of a 10-game losing skid.
“We went through a tough stretch and got a win the other night in Calgary and this one tonight was big to keep us going on the right track,” said Flyers goalie Brian Elliott.
