Sergei Bobrovsky celebrated his 23rd birthday by stopping all 27 shots he faced as Philadelphia topped Toronto, 4-0, in preseason action at Air Canada Centre.
Zac Rinaldo, Wayne Simmonds, Mike Testwuide and Sean Couturier tallied for the Flyers, who are looking to put a second-round sweep at the hands of Stanley Cup champion Boston behind them.
James Reimer allowed all four scores on 22 shots in the setback for the Maple Leafs, who are looking for their first playoff trip since 2004.
The game, which was in hand for the Orange and Black throughout, took an ugly turn in the third period, when firecracker Tom Sestito jumped and pummeled former Flyer and current Leafs forward Joffrey Lupul.
Due to the fact that the club has four games in four nights in four separate locations, they are essentially going to be split into two factions. On Wednesday, the other squad takes on the Leafs at the big arena on South Broad Street.
