Canucks vs Flyers Prediction

The Canucks played last night and are coming off an overtime game, so there could some tired legs. The Canucks have also had issues at home all season. Only 4 of the Canucks 16 wins this season have come on their home ice. The Flyers have had some stinkers here and there, but they have the rest advantage, and they beat the Canucks last week 5-2. The Flyers have won 7 of the last 10 games against the Canucks. Reasonable price. I’ll side with the Flyers, mainly due to the subpar results by the Canucks at home.
