Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Philadelphia Flyers Prediction

I’m on the Flyers here. The Penguins continue to have a strong start to the year, but I don’t love the spot for them on the second half of the back-to-back here. The Flyers have quietly won three straight games at home and I kind of like how they’re playing it right now. I’ll roll with the Flyers at home in this one.
