PHILADELPHIA — Matvei Michkov and Sean Couturier each had a goal and two assists, Owen Tippett scored a pair of goals and the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-3. In the first game back from the 4 Nations break for both teams, Michkov opened the scoring in the first period when he followed up his own missed shot and put the rebound off the end boards past Stuart Skinner. In the second period, Michkov made two no-look passes that turned into Flyers' goals. He found Couturier with a cross-ice pass on the door step and later with a pass into the slot for Tippett's second tally on a 2-on-none breakaway.
