Ottawa Senators vs Philadelphia Flyers prediction

You can make a case for the Ottawa Senators when you consider they’ve won the last 4 games against the Flyers, which includes a 5-3 win back in January. However, I usually lean toward the home team when both clubs are on the end of a back to back. Also, the Senators are just 8-16-1 on the road this season. The Philadelphia Flyers simply can’t afford to allow games like this to slip away if they’re going to make anything of the rest of this season in terms of the playoff chase. These are the games you get fat on in the standings. The price is more than reasonable. Give me the Flyers and the cheap price.
