Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Philadelphia Flyers Prediction
I’m on the Flyers in this one. I get the case to be made for the Blue Jackets as the Flyers haven’t been much to write home about this season. However, the Flyers have started to play better in the last couple of weeks and I think at home, the Flyers can take care of business so give me the Flyers in this one.
