Flyers vs Senators Prediction 

Ottawa comes into this matchup really struggling to start this season, as they have just two wins in seven games. The Senators are 1-2-1 at home this year, while the Flyers are 0-1-1 on the road. Philadelphia has won three of their last four games and they have allowed two goals in each of those victories. The Flyers don’t have a ton of talent in my opinion, but their defense and penalty kill have been very good. Ottawa is better than their record would suggest and the Flyers are winless on the road, so give me the Senators to get the win here.
