Philadelphia is 24th in scoring, tied for 10th in goals against, 32nd on the power play, and 18th on the penalty kill. Travis Konecny leads the team in goals, assists, and points. The Flyers are 20-12-4 on the road and 8-1-1 in their last 10 games. Lately, this team has had a tight defensive structure, allowing just 1.8 goals per game over their last 10 games. One of their most recent wins was against the Detroit Red Wings, a team that is in the playoff race with them. The Flyers will look to keep that momentum going and push the Capitals down the rankings.

Their last two games have been high-scoring ones and a game of scoring runs. The offense is trending way up, but they need to avoid giving up goals in bunches.
