Preview
The Ottawa Senators will play their fifth straight game at home when they host the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday. These teams have met once this season and the Flyers got the win at home 4-3 in overtime.
PHILADELPHIA FLYERS
The Flyers have lost 2 of their last 5 games and are 7-20 on the road this season. They have a 19-30-11 record overall and are 7th in the Metropolitan division. Philadelphia beat the Predators 5-4 on Thursday. Kevin Hayes scored a tying goal late in the third period, then assisted Joel Farabee’s game-winner with 1:19 remaining to take the win.
Atkinson has 46 total points while scoring 22 goals and totaling 24 assists for the Flyers. James van Riemsdyk has three goals over the last 10 games for Philadelphia.
In their last 10 games the Panthers are 4-6, averaging 2.5 goals, 4.1 assists, 3.9 penalties and 10 penalty minutes while giving up 2.9 goals per game with a .914 save percentage.
OTTAWA SENATORS
The Senators have lost 3 straight games and are 11-21 at home this season. They have a 21-34-5 record overall and are 7th in the Atlantic. They have lost their last 3 games at home against the Blackhawks, Coyotes and Blue Jackets.
Josh Norris leads the Senators with 24 goals and has 34 points. Tim Stutzle has 8 points over the last 10 games for Ottawa.
In their last 10 games the Senators are 2-8, averaging 2.4 goals, four assists, 4.6 penalties and 14.4 penalty minutes while giving up 3.7 goals per game with an .881 save percentage.
BETTING TRENDS
Philadelphia are 4-11 SU in their last 15 games.
Philadelphia are 0-10 SU in their last 10 games on the road.
Ottawa are 2-8 SU in their last 10 games.
Ottawa are 2-9 SU in their last 11 games at home.
Prediction
These are two bad teams with poor offenses. The Flyers have lost their last 10 games on the road and the Senators have lost 9 of their last 11 at home. It's hard to trust in any of these teams and with both of them struggling to score lately I think the Under is the play, I know both defenses are bad but I expect a 3-2 type of game.
PICK: Under 6.5 (-120)
