Blue Jackets vs Flyers Prediction

We’re getting plus money with the Flyers on their home ice, and they’re playing their best hockey of the season over the last week. The Blue Jackets continue to have issues stringing together positive results, and their defense remains a mess. The Blue Jackets also have yet to get a point on the road. I get that the Flyers’ overall body of work isn’t great, but the Blue Jackets have done nothing to be favored on the road. I’ll take the Flyers and the more favorable price.
