New York Rangers vs. Philadelphia Flyers Prediction
I’m on the Flyers here. I just don’t feel like there’s any backing the Rangers right now as they could at least help out by winning games on the road earlier this year, but now, they’re not even interested in doing that. The Flyers have found ways to get wins as of late and have been providing value all season long and I think this game is no different. Give me the Flyers in this one.
