Flyers vs Bruins Prediction

The Bruins aren’t the same team on the road as they are at home and the Flyers have played some of their best hockey over the last two weeks, putting themselves in the playoff conversation. The Flyers need to keep piling up the points if they’re going to stay in the race. The home team has won 5 of the last 7 games between the Flyers and Bruins. Bigger game for the Flyers in terms of the playoff chase. At home, early start, I’ll lay the cheap price on with the Flyers.
