There were a lot of players who were unhappy when the NHL adopted a salary cap a few years back, but it has to be said that it has created a marvelous level of parity in the league. Yes, there are still some teams who are struggling badly, but most of those are in the process of rebuilding. The Philadelphia Flyers could fall into that category, and they will have another tough NHL betting game on Tuesday when they have to head to Ottawa to face the Senators.
Coach says no line-up changes for tonight.

Like many teams who end up down near the cellar, the Philadelphia Flyers (9-10-5) are struggling to put the puck in the back of the net. They are dead last in offense, netting an average of just 1.8 goals per game, which simply isn’t good enough. They have a defense that is stuck in the middle of the pack, but who have had enough good nights to allow the Flyers to win more games than people expected. They are coming off an excellent week, winning 3 of 4 games, and playing some excellent defense along the way. Shutting out the New York Rangers over the weekend was quite probably the highlight for the Flyers. They will have to play 2 games on the road to start the week before heading back home on Saturday. Their 4-6-2 road record does not suggest that they will have a lot of success, but this team is playing some good hockey at the moment.
