The under is 4-0-1 in Flyers last 5 road games. The under is 5-1 in Red Wings last 6 vs. Eastern Conference. The Flyers are 15-7 in the last 22 meetings. The favorite is 7-1 in the last 8 meetings. The home team is 26-9 in the last 35 meetings.

Randy’s Free Pick

The Detroit Red Wings should have the edge at home and the Flyers simply can't win on the road, which was an issue last year as well. Still, there's not much separation between these two teams, and I'm not thrilled to back either side in the favorite role. If forced to pick, give me the Flyers and the plus money.

Randy’s Pick Philadelphia Flyers +120
