These teams are separated by just six points heading into Friday’s Flyers vs Capitals matchup. But the Philadelphia Flyers have been a much better team statistically and should take this contest on the road. Washington is barely above .500 at home on the season. More concerning is their goal differential, which is worse than everyone but Columbus and Montreal in the Eastern Conference this season. Look for Philly to get a big win to help them move closer to the postseason in the Metropolitan Division.
