Owen Tippett extends goal-scoring streak to 3 games in Flyers victory

By Canadian Press on October 20, 2025.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Owen Tippett is working on a strong start with the Philadelphia Flyers.

Tippett extended his scoring streak to three in a row when he picked up two more goals in a 5-2 victory over Seattle on Monday night. It’s the second-longest such streak for the veteran winger, who scored in four consecutive games from Nov. 10-18, 2023.

With Tippett’s help, Philadelphia closed out a 3-1-0 homestand. Following a trip to Ottawa, the Flyers begin a five-game homestand on Saturday against the New York Islanders.

The 26-year-old Tippett is beginning his fourth full season with Philadelphia after he was acquired in a March 2022 trade with Florida. He totaled at least 20 goals and 22 assists in each of the previous three years.

Philadelphia trailed Seattle 1-0 before Tippett tied the score midway through the first period. Kraken goaltender Joey Daccord turned the puck over behind the net, and Tippett redirected Nick Seeler’s deflected shot for his fourth goal of the season.

Tippett then made it 5-2 when he beat Daccord with a sharp-angled shot with 4:20 left in the second. The Flyers outscored the Kraken 3-1 in the middle period.
