Hockey Club vs Flyers Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup really struggling over the last two weeks, but Utah will have the home ice. The Hockey Club is 8-12-6 at home this year, while the Flyers are 11-13-5 on the road. Philadelphia has been shutout in three straight games and they have scored one goal or fewer in five of their last six. Utah has lost five games in a row and they have scored two goals or fewer in all five games. Utah did win the first meeting between these teams back in December and I am going to take them again here. The Hockey Club has lost three games in a row by one goal and I just can’t back a team that hasn’t scored in three games. Take Utah here.
