Colorado Avalanche vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction

The Flyers finally got their first win of the season while cashing a nice underdog ticket against the Senators, but it doesn’t move the needle much. The Flyers have been a mess offensively, and that includes scoring 2 or fewer goals in 9 of their last 10 games. It’s just not enough most nights, especially against the better teams in the league. I have to side with the Avs and will lay the PL to shave down the price.
