PHILADELPHIA -- After making 29 saves and picking up his first NHL victory, Anthony Stolarz said he never gave much thought about becoming the first New Jersey native to tend goal in the NHL.What Ill remember most is winning, Stolarz said after Philadelphia Flyers 5-3 victory over the Calgary Flames on Sunday night. Being able to win your first start is huge for me and my confidence.The 22-year-old native of Edison was backed up by goals from Michael Raffl, Jakub Voracek, Chris VandeVelde, Wayne Simmonds and Roman Lyubimov. The Flyers snapped a two-game losing streak to improve to 10-10-3.T.J. Brodie, Matthew Tkachuk and Alex Chiasson scored for the Flames. They are 10-13-1 overall, and 3-2-0 on a six-game trip that will end Monday night against the New York Islanders.Its the worst we played from the start all season, Flames coach Glen Gulutzan said. I give them credit, too. They outworked us, they outplayed us, they were hungrier in all areas and they outpaced us. Were sitting where we should be on this road trip.Stolarz was drafted by the Flyers in the second round in 2012 and had been recalled six other times before making his NHL debut as the tallest goalie (6-foot-6) in Flyers history. He said more than 30 family and friends made the 60-mile drive to see his first NHL game.Stolarz allowed a short-handed goal on the second shot he faced, but stopped the next 23 shots and saw the Flyers take a 4-1 lead into the third period.I didnt want to give up that first goal, but it happens, he said. I guess it was good to get it out of the way early. I calmed down a little bit and the jitters went away and I was just able to go out and play.The Flames grabbed an early lead when Brodie lifted a short-handed backhander under Stolarzs catching arm for his first goal of the season. It was Calgarys league-leading fourth short-handed goal.The Flyers tied it at 17:42 when Voracek swung around the back of the net and fed Raffl for his fourth goal of the season. Voracek gave the Flyers their first lead of the game 52 seconds into the second period with his first power-play goal. Voraceks intended pass for Wayne Simmonds deflected off Flames defenseman Mark Giordano and over Johnson for his eighth goal of the season.The Flyers made it 4-1 on goals by VandeVelde and Simmonds 24 seconds apart. VandeVelde parked in the slot and redirected a pass from Lyubimov past Johnson for his fourth goal of the season. Shortly after the ensuing faceoff, Simmonds broke away from the Calgary defense and put a backhander past Johnson for his team-high 11th goal.The most disappointing part of tonight is we got out of the first and they came out in the second and scored a bunch of goals in a short amount of time, Giordano said.Its a disappointing loss, but we have back-to-back games and weve got to finish this trip off on the right note. If we win tomorrow (in New York) its a 4-2 trip and thats a good trip.The Flames drew to 4-2 8:05 into final period on Tkachuks sixth goal of the season, but Lyubimov restored the Flyers three-goal lead with his fourth goal of the season off a Michael Del Zotto rebound.Chiasson scored the Flames second short-handed goal of the night with 1:50 remaining.To be honest, I think (the Flames) were a little bit tired and we took advantage of it, Voracek said. (Stolarz) made a key save in the second period when it was 2-1. It was good to see him get his first win.Gulutzan, whose team played its fifth game in eight nights, said there are no excuses for his players performance.Theres no system for being outworked, he said.Game notes Flyers C Claude Giroux moved into 10th on the Flyers all-time scoring list with his 536th point, an assist on a second-period goal by Voracek. .

The formidable trio of Canadian receivers -- individually known as Chris Getzlaf, Rob Bagg and Andy Fantuz -- will share the field at Mosaic Stadium one more time on Sunday. Its December, and in some cities the weather is bad, the football is worse.While overall attendance in the NFL is up -- credit in great part the Rams move from St. Louis to Los Angeles -- those empty seats you see in several stadiums are no mirage.There are even lots of empties in the LA Memorial Coliseum; maybe there was no honeymoon period with the Rams returning to LA.Jacksonville, Cincinnati, Miami, San Francisco, Cleveland and the Jersey Meadowlands when the Jets are home have had rows and rows of unused tickets. Other than Miami, those clubs have losing records this season.The Dolphins (8-5) have announced sellouts each week, but there have been thousands of empty seats.Detroit, perhaps on its way to a first-round playoff bye, has seen the same; last weekends win over the Bears drew 61,726 to the 65,000-seat facility.Atlanta is tied for the NFC South lead and has sold out 67 straight games, but the stands have not been filled for much of this season, including a crowd almost 3,000 under capacity for the opener.The Bucs, tied atop the NFC South with the Falcons, are averaging 60,423 through seven games, 5,000 under capacity.When the 49ers hosted the Jets last Sunday, Levis Stadium was about half full. Of course, the matchup was a weak one, but the Niners havent drawn well for other contests, including against division rival Arizona.It appears to be a combination of the team consistently losing, people not enamored of the stadium and its location in Santa Clara, and, on hot days, the sun baking a significant number of seats, making it uncomfortably hot.Dont think the players dont notice, either. San Franciscos Ahmad Brooks called it disrespectful that so many Patriots fans were in the building on Nov. 20. Minnesotas Stefon Diggs said it was a great crowd when most of the fans in Jacksonville on Sunday were wearing purple.I almost thought it was a home game it was so loud for us at times. Its louder back home, but it was great fan support for us today. They came out and showed a lot of love.Theres not much love being shown in Cleveland, which seems logical given the Browns chase of infamy. Browns fans are among the most loyal in football, but an 0-fer is a bit too much to bear.That means plenty of empty orange seats at FirstEnergy Stadium. The crowds have gotten noticeably smaller and last Sunday the stadium was only half-filled for Ohio rival Cincinnati. For other games, notably against Pittsburgh and Dallas, there were thousands of opposing fans.Well, we did that to ourselves, said tackle Joe Thomas, Clevelands best player. Were the ones that didnt win the games. If we would be 13-0, I guarantee it would be packed, theyd be selling tickets for a thousand bucks a pop.So its not discouraging any more than the record that we havee is discouraging.dddddddddddd Thats the nature of the NFL. If you dont win, people dont want to watch you.In Tampa, which has a young and exciting team building something impressive, the first game in which there wasnt a massive presence of fans in visiting regalia was against Seattle -- the Bucs sixth home game.Visiting fans dont have problems getting seats because there are so many tickets available.After last weeks 16-11 win over New Orleans, Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston said: People want to come to these games and see the Bucs play now. Thats fun. Thats fun as a team to know that were coming into a building and everyone is here for us, not the other team. Thats great.This weekend could provide quite a test of fans allegiances for the Bengals and the Jets. Cincinnati has advertised the availability of tickets for Sundays matchup with the Steelers, so theres a decent chance Paul Brown Stadium will be full -- of Terrible Towels.New York has a Saturday night matchup against the Dolphins, one of its top rivals. Dont expect to see waves of green throughout the stands at MetLife Stadium, particularly with a chance of nasty weather.Ryan Bosma, a Jets season ticket holder since 2009, gave his two tickets to friends.Its challenging when the Jets are down the drain, he says. There are just so many tickets available on the secondary market, and supply and demand does not work out in your favor. The market is just flooded with tickets, so to get any kind of return on tickets, its virtually impossible.Yet people keep buying season tickets, hardly an inexpensive venture, particularly when personal seat licenses (PSLs) are involved. Giving away tickets, selling them for less than face value or, even worse, eating them only exacerbates the costs, particularly for fans financing the PSL payments.Bosma admits he chose to purchase the seats and PSLs, so he is stuck with the payments. Hes also stuck with a product that can be woeful. Just like his brethren in several other cities where, despite the overall health of the 32 NFL franchises, pro football is not a slam-dunk attraction.I was on the waiting list for five or six years, Bosma says. They were going into a new stadium and a lot of people decided not to do PSLs, and I went right up the list.Now, he doesnt feel so fortunate. But at least he has company.It is an endless cycle with the Jets, he says with a chuckle and no apparent bitterness.
