Free Press ★★★
★ Jakub Voracek, RW, Flyers: Set up two of Philly’s goals and was a threat just about every time he stepped on the ice. A quietly efficient game.
★★ Andrew Ladd, LW, Jets: Two goals for the Jets captain, who now has six this season. Both as a result of solid passes — the first from Blake Wheeler, the second from Evander Kane — and his quick hands.
★★★ Ilya Bryzgalov, G, Flyers: Jet fans serenaded him all night, but he was steady in kicking out 24 of 16 shots.

The Jets entered the game with the most points in the NHL from their defensive corps, but their six-man crew was held off the scoresheet Tuesday.
