The Philadelphia Flyers lost a winnable game against the Metropolitan Division leading Washington Capitals, 4-3, at Wells Fargo Center on Thursday evening.

The Philadelphia Flyers’ losing streak continues as they fell to the red-hot Washington Capitals 4-3 on Thursday night. Matvei Michkov and Tyson Foerster scored for the Flyers Thursday night.

By allowing the Washington Capitals to score twice in the third period and post a 4-3 comeback victory, the Flyers racked up their fifth straight loss and seventh over their past eight games.

The Flyers relinquished a third-period lead Thursday night en route to a 4-3 loss to the Capitals at the Wells Fargo Center.

Philadelphia acquired Andrei Kuzmenko, Jakob Pelletier, and two draft picks from the Calgary Flames in exchange for Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee on Jan. 30, but have not been able to field Kuzmenko or Pelletier in the lineup yet as the two are currently waiting for their visas to clear, allowing them to work in the U.S.

The Flyers, who were shut out in their previous three games, extended their losing streak to four games after falling to Utah in overtime.
