Travis Konecny is proving to be a handful lately, in more ways than one.

The Philadelphia Flyers forward scored a goal Wednesday against the Washington Capitals, and the first-period marker gave him a goal in each of his last five games.

Konecny has been on a roll since being promoted to the Flyers' top line with Claude Giroux and Sean Couturier, and his five-game goal streak featured overtime winners in consecutive contests, first against the Capitals on Jan. 21 and then against the Detroit Red Wings on Jan. 23.

The 20-year-old sits fourth among all Flyers in goal-scoring with 11 in 50 games, as only Couturier, Wayne Simmonds, and Giroux have lit the lamp more often.

Konecny is in his second NHL season after being selected 24th overall by the Flyers in 2015.
