PHILADELPHIA Mike Richards and Alex Ovechkin showed off a sensational
scoring show in a can you top this second period.

Back and forth went two of the top young stars in the Easte
Conference: Ovechkin, the Washington Capitals back to back Hart Trophy
winner, against the Philadelphia Flyers blossoming young captain.

Richards bested Ovechkin in goals and on the final score.

Danny Briere pounced on a loose puck and knocked in the rebound at 3:52
of overtime to keep the Flyers perfect and lift them to a 6 5 win over
the Capitals on Tuesday night.

"Theres no doubt its fun once in a while," Briere said. "I think its
exciting. Its great for the fans. I certainly think its good for the
game."

Richards had his second career NHL hat trick to help the Flyers
improve to 3 0 for the first time since the 1998 99 season. Ovechkin
scored twice and has five goals already in three games this season for
Washington (2 0 1).

Ovechkin and Richards scored all their goals in a wildly entertaining
second period. The teams scored seven times, and Capitals goalie Semyon
Varlamov was yanked for Jose Theodore.

"Its not the ideal way to win, but every once in a while you have to
find a way to win these games," Richards said.

Matt Carle set a Flyers record among defensemen for most assists in
a period with four in the second.

Alexander Semin scored twice for the Capitals.

"We dont want to get involved in a track meet with the Pittsburghs
and the Washingtons of the world," Flyers coach John Stevens said.
"I think were built just a little bit differently, but we do have an
exciting offensive team and I think you saw that."

Ovechkin and Richards tued the second period into a rapid fire game
of one on one that gave a sold out crowd at the Flyers home opener
its moneys worth.

After a scoreless first, Richards took a fantastic pass from Carle
and shot high from the red line 1:37 into the period for the power
play goal to make it 1 0.

The fans were just winding down from the replay when Ovechkin, who
scored twice on opening night, scored his first goal thanks to a
tuover and tied it only 67 seconds later.

Ovechkin made it 2 2, and Richards had another goal on the power play
that tied it at 3.

Ovechkin appreciated going goal to goal with Richards.

"Hes a great player and this was a great game," Ovechkin said.

When Richards scored his third goal of the period only 18 seconds after
his second and put it past Varlamov, the crowd burst into cheers. Fans
littered the ice with hats and caused a brief stoppage. Richards pumped
his fists and was mobbed by teammates after giving Philadelphia a 4 3
lead.

The Flyers collected 492 hats.

"You definitely enjoy the rush," Richards said. "You have to do that
when you get the opportunity."

Semin poked his third of the season past Emery, and Kimmo Timonens
first was a wrister through teammate Jeff Carters screen that put the
Flyers ahead 2 1.

No one played a bigger role in Richards success than Carle.
The defenseman forced the tuover that led to Richards third goal.
Carle had two points in the first two games.

Semin tied it at 4 early in the third, and Brendan Morrison put the
Capitals ahead when the puck bounced off him and past Emery as he skidded
into the crease.

Scott Hartnell poked in a deflection with 4:10 left in the third that
gave the Flyers new life and would sent the game into overtime. The goal
was Philadelphias third on the power play.

Emery, who had a shutout in his Flyers debut, was shaky in his first game
in front of the orange and black clad fans. He stopped 31 shots.

Varlamov allowed four goals on 25 shots.

"Varlamov has to be more mentally tough to play," Capitals coach Bruce
Boudreau said. "They seem to score in bunches on him right now."

Briere, who missed most of last season with groin and abdomen injuries,
bailed out Emery with his first goal.

Game notes
Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said center Blair Betts will miss at
least a month with a dislocated right shoulder. Holmgren said rookie left
winger James van Riemsdyk had his "bell rung" and will be evaluated on
Wednesday. Washington right winger Mike Knuble, who spent the last four
seasons with the Flyers, got a nice ovation during pregame introductions.
Richards previous hat trick was February 8, 2006, against the New York
Islanders. Richards tied the Flyers record for most goals in a period.
The last defenseman to record four assists in one period was the Los
Angeles Kings Rob Blake, who did it in the second period against the
Calgary Flames on January 29, 1998.Richards was the first Flyers player
to post a hat trick in the teams home opener.
