    Ilya Bryzgalov's shutout, Eric Wellwood's deflected goal, and coach Peter Laviolette's well-timed timeout all helped the Philadelphia Flyers pick up a rare second consecutive victory.

    Two-time league MVP Alex Ovechkin's diminished ice time certainly didn't have a positive effect on the Washington Capitals' suddenly silent offense.

    Wellwood scored 47 seconds after Laviolette gave his players an earful, Bryzgalov made 34 saves, and the Flyers beat the Capitals 1-0 on Sunday night for their first winning streak since January.
