The Philadelphia Flyers and Ottawa Senators meet Thursday in NHL action at the Canadian Tire Centre. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

The Philadelphia Flyers are averaging 2.7 goals per game and are scoring on 15.4 percent of their power play opportunities. Travis Konecny leads Philadelphia with 27 goals, Kevin Hayes has 35 assists and Owen Tippett has 196 shots on goal. Defensively, the Philadelphia Flyers are allowing 3.2 goals per game and are killing 74.9 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Carter Hart has allowed 145 goals on 1,586 shots faced, and Felix Sandstrom has given up 48 goals on 425 shots.

The Ottawa Senators are averaging 3.2 goals per game and are scoring on 24.6 percent of their power play opportunities. Tim Stutzle leads Ottawa with 36 goals, Brady Tkachuk has 43 assists and Alex DeBrincat has 241 shots on goal. Defensively, the Ottawa Senators are allowing 3.2 goals per game and are killing 82.3 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Anton Forsberg has allowed 80 goals on 817 shots faced, and Cam Talbot has given up 83 goals on 874 shots.

The Flyers are 16-44 in their last 60 road games and 46-95 in their last 141 overall. The Senators are 6-2 in their last 8 home games and 3-7 in their last 10 overall. The over is 5-2 in Flyers last 7 overall. The over is 12-4-1 in Senators last 17 overall. The favorite is 19-7 in the last 26 meetings. The under is 3-0-1 in the last 4 meetings.

The Philadelphia Flyers have been a mess on the road all year, and they’re just not a team I’m eager to get behind. The Ottawa Senators have issues of their own, but they’re at home where they’ve played their best recently and playoffs are still possible, even if those chances are getting slimmer by the week. Must win for the Senators. I’ll lay the somewhat reasonable price.
