Philadelphia is 35-77 in their last 112 games overall and 4-0 in their last 4 games against a team with a winning percentage below .400 while the over is 5-0 in their last 5 home games.

Pick

I’m rolling with the Flyers here. The Ducks have had no luck on the second half of a back-to-back and I’m not looking for that streak to end here. The Flyers were rolling before running into Boston on Monday and I think even on a back-to-back, they bounce back at home here. Give me the Flyers in this one.
