The Colorado Avalanche are the defending Stanley Cup Champions and will be hosting the Philadelphia Flyers. Colorado snapped a four-game losing streak with a win over St. Louis. The Flyers haven't been much better, losing five of six with the win coming over Colorado. The Flyers have struggled on the offensive end, as they rank second to last in goals per game with 2.41 and are 5th worst in shots per game. On the defensive end, they are giving up 3.28 goals a game. Carter Hart has a 2.84 GAA and a .909 save percentage. The Avalanche are 16th with 3.08 goals per game and are 9th in shots. On the defensive end, they are giving up 2.81 goals. Alexander Georgiev has a 2.65 GAA and a .920 save percentage.
Philadelphia’s offense is one of the worst in the league, while Colorado has a top-ten-scoring defense in the NHL. Philadelphia’s offense is one of the worst in the league. Colorado’s last three games have seen five or fewer goals scored. The under is 10-4 in the Avs’ last 14 games overall and 5-1 in their previous six outings at home. Five of Philadelphia’s last seven tilts have gone under the total. I am looking for this to be a low-scoring game as the Flyers have struggled to score and the Avs have been dealing with injuries to key offensive players.

Play on the UNDER.
