Montreal Canadiens vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction
The Flyers and plus money are worth a look with the way they’re playing. However, the Flyers just clinched a playoff spot last night in overtime and there’s nothing to play for here. Also, I doubt guys will be up for this game after likely partying the night away. The Canadiens are rested and while there’s not much to gain here either, they’ve been ridiculous on the road all season long. I don’t love the price in a game where neither team gains much but I can’t back the Flyers in a serious letdown spot. It’s Habs or pass for me.
