Brian Elliott picked up his first Stanley Cup Playoffs win with the Philadelphia Flyers to help even their series at one apiece Friday night.
After a 7-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins in the series opener, the Flyers came storming back with a 5-1 victory backed by Elliot, who made 31 of his 34 saves on the night consecutively.
"Moose" earned the game's second star for his performance, which included a show-stopping denial of Penguins captain Sidney Crosby breakaway.
