He’s stood on his head a bunch of times for us. Every time he’s been in there, he’s given us a good opportunity.”The Flyers improved to 4-7-2 under Gordon and got their fourth win in 17 games.The Flyers appeared to retake a two-goal lead 1:48 later, but Jakub Voracek’s apparent score was waived off after a video review due to goalie interference.NOTES: The Stars return home Saturday to begin a six-game homestand against St. Louis.
