The Rangers had a two-man advantage for 1:04 but couldn't capitalize as the Flyers killed off the penalties with 9:35 remaining in the first period.

Philadelphia had a pair of unsuccessful power plays as Lundqvist made a couple of stellar saves against Jakub Voracek and van Riemsdyk.

Lundqvist preserved the lead with a sprawling save on a shot by Morgan Frost at 9:24.

The Flyers tied the game at 1 with only 1.7 seconds left in the second as Sanheim scored. Travis Konecny bothered Lundqvist just enough in front for the puck to squeak through. It was Sanheim's first goal in 16 games.

Hayes, who has a three-game points streak, fired a slap shot into the top corner of the net at 7:31 of the third period to put the Flyers ahead 2-1.

New York's Mika Zibanejad nearly tied the game at 11:33, but Hart was able to clear the shot with his blocker.

The Flyers extended their advantage to 5-1 with 57.1 seconds left when Aube-Kubel scored his first NHL goal in his 14th career game.
