Konecny dazzles in debut, Flyers outlast Kings lash

Things didn't go the way head coach Dave Hakstol had planned in his teams season opener Friday night, but the Philadelphia Flyers came out on top. The Flyers were outshot in Los Angeles by twenty one shots, but used timely positioning and good fortune to withhold the Kings onslaught of offense.

* Travis Konecny wasted no time making his impression felt in the NHL, causing a turnover halfway through the first period that sprung him on a breakaway for his first NHL goal.

* Brayden Schenn was the beneficiary of two loose Jonathan Quick rebounds from nearly identical spots on the ice.

* The Kings hit the crossbar once, post twice, and had a goal overturned during the contest.
