Blackhawks vs. Flyers Prediction

I’m on the Flyers here. I’ve given up on the Blackhawks as I thought they’d be able to provide some value against Ottawa and got back to looking like the Blackhawks we’ve seen all season. Philadelphia’s the only team with anything to really play for here and I think Chicago could be in for some real trouble once again here. Give me the Flyers -1.5 in this one.
