Pick

I’m sticking with the under here. I know the Flyers have been giving up lots of goals lately, but I really don’t trust the Penguins to do a ton of damage in this game and more importantly, I don’t expect much from the Flyers either as their scoring has fallen off of a cliff in a lot of their recent games. Give me the under here.
