Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Philadelphia Flyers Prediction
I’m on the Flyers here. The Penguins have been a solid team in terms of how competitive they’ve been on the road, but the Flyers are rolling right now with wins in 6 of their last 8 games and they are not a team I feel like stepping in front of right now, especially when Pittsburgh got their feathers beat off of them by Toronto the other day. I think Philadelphia gets the win at home here so I’ll roll with the Flyers in this one.
