Sharks on Tired Legs

The Sharks are going to be on tired legs after their game on Sunday but at least they are coming off a victory.

Philadelphia Flyers vs San Jose Sharks Prediction

Give me the under here. The Sharks are averaging only 2.31 goals per game, and even on Sunday when they were able to win the game they scored only one goal. Their offense is going to really struggle to get going here. The Flyers offense overall also hasn’t been great, and they aren’t going to run up the score. They might score three goals, but it’s not going to be more than that here. Back the under.
