Despite the loss, Saturday night was an encouraging night for the Philadelphia Flyers and their fans as they went toe-to-toe with one of, if not the best team in the NHL as they staged a strong comeback before falling short 6-5 to the Boston Bruins. The Flyers' furious comeback was sparked by one of the most impressive goals of the season as a young Flyers center continues to show his worth and progression in the 2023-24 season.
With just under five minutes to go in the game, the Flyers found themselves down 5-3 against the Bruins in desperate need for a goal. In comes Morgan Frost who netted not only a much-needed goal, but one that is sure to be on highlight mixtapes for years to come.
Frost skated the puck up the ice, made an incredible pass to Owen Tippett as Tippett passed it right back to Frost who showed some smooth stick work as he worked it in between Jeremy Swayman's legs and in the net for a goal.

The goal brought the Flyers within one with under five minutes to play, but Danton Heinin closed the door on the Flyers for good as he netted the game clinching goal just two minutes later.
Despite the loss, this goal comes at an opportune time for Frost who has been desperately trying to show that he belongs in the lineup and show consistency to head coach John Tortorella who benched him earlier in the season.
Frost is still progressing nicely as he currently sits with 35 points on 24 assists and 11 goals on the season, but some fans are still wanting and expecting more from the 2017 first-round pick.
