Philadelphia at New York

The New York Rangers are back home, where they have won only four of 17 games, one of the more inexplicable stats this season. They are last in the league, scoring 1.76 goals per game at home, and the Rangers have lost five of seven overall, though they come off a 2-1 overtime win at St. Louis on Thursday. Philadelphia is 22-11 on the puck line and #11 in the NHL in goals allowed (2.79). The Flyers are 5-2 after allowing at least five goals in their previous game, and New York has lost six of eight in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days spot. The Rangers have lost five of six against teams that allowed five or more goals in their previous game. Dan Vladar is 12-5-3 with a 2.41 goals-against average for Philadelphia and is the likely starter today. Take the Flyers on the puckline.
