Flyers vs Blue Jackets Prediction


I’m not running to the window to lay juice with the Blue Jackets given the week they’re having. However, the Flyers are in a similar funk where the offense can’t get going, and they’ve had issues on the road this season. The Blue Jackets have seen six of their seven wins this season come on their home ice.

The Blue Jackets have also won 8 of the last 10 games against the Flyers, which includes six straight victories. The Flyers haven’t beaten the Blue Jackets since December 2024. One of those wins came a couple of weeks ago in Philly and in overtime. The price is low. I like the Blue Jackets to stop the bleeding on their home ice and get a nice feel-good win.
