Philadelphia Flyers vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction
The Philadelphia Flyers are probably the more talented team and should like their chances, but the truth is neither team has been easy to read this season, and you’re not sure which side is going to show up. The home team has won each of the last 6 games between the Flyers and Red Wings. Also, the Red Wings are coming off a dominating performance against the Maple Leafs, possibly their best win of the season. It could be a turning point moving forward. Pick ’em price? I’ll side with the Red Wings at home.
