The Flyers are 15-36 in their last 51 road games and 16-48 in their last 64 overall. The Blackhawks are 16-36 in their last 52 home games and 15-36 in their last 51 overall. The over is 3-0-1 in Flyers last 4 overall. The over is 6-2 in Blackhawks last 8 overall. The Flyers are 6-0 in the last 6 meetings. The home team is 21-5 in the last 26 meetings.

The Chicago Blackhawks are going to get the benefit of the doubt because they’re at home, and they’ve probably shown more this season overall. With that said, both of these teams are piling up the losses left and right, and they don’t have anything to play for right now. As Ive said in previous write-ups, with a matchup like this when both teams are losing out of control, I want the team that’s tagged with the more favorable price. If forced to pick a bottom feeder, give me the plus money. I’m not laying juice with a Blackhawks team that’s lost 12 of their last 14 tries. Give me the Flyers.
