My top Flyers vs. Penguins predictions and NHL picks expect another low-scoring bout in the Battle of Pennsylvania tonight.
Flyers vs Penguins Game 2 prediction
Flyers vs Penguins best bet: Under 6 (-120)
The Philadelphia Flyers played elite defense down the stretch with just 2.41 goals against during a 15-5-1 heater, and the attention to detail carried over in Game 1 against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Pittsburgh generated just 1.96 expected goals on eight high-danger scoring chances.
A trade off for the strong defensive play is Philadelphia doesn’t generate many quality chances, either, and the Flyers finished with just 2.77 expected goals on nine high-danger scoring chances in Game 1.
The Pens were a surprising high-scoring team during the regular season, and especially at 5-on-5 with the second-most goals per 60 minutes and second-highest team shooting percentage, so the Philly defense is kick-starting a splash of statistical correction to the unsustainable Pittsburgh attack.
