Flyers lose in final seconds when Braydon Coburn trips own goalie (VIDEO)

The Sharks pulled out a unique 2-1 victory against the struggling Flyers when defenseman Braydon Coburn tripped up his own goalie to set up Matt Nieto's winning goal in the final seconds Tuesday night.



The unintentional empty-netter occurred when Coburn chased after Nieto who was going for a rebound attempt. Flyers goalie Steve Mason came out of the net to defend and his left pad was rammed into by Coburn's left leg.

The result was a Nieto backhander into the unguarded net with 11.5 seconds to go.




The slumping  Flyers keep finding different ways to lose. This backbreaker gives them a 1-8-1 record in their last 10 games.
