Flyers Game 72: Lines, Notes, & How to Watch @ Red Wings
After a dominating 5-1 win vs. the Blackhawks on Thursday, the Philadelphia Flyers (35-24-12) are back in a playoff-like environment on Saturday, taking on the Detroit Red Wings (39-25-8) on the road at Little Caesars Arena. The Flyers bounced back from a gut-wrenching loss on Tuesday with a big win on Thursday.
Philadelphia has points in four of its last five, and is 4-1- 0 in that span. The Flyers are 7-2-1 over the last 10, playing some of their best hockey of the season. Detroit is ahead of the Flyers in the Wild Card standings, but has sort of fallen off, really, since the trade deadline.
The Red Wings are 3-2-0 in their last five, but 4-5-1 over the last 10. They are coming off a big 5-2 road win over the Buffalo Sabres, which could help swing momentum back in their favor. Puck drop is at 8:00 p.
m. EST at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. Here is how the Flyers are expected to line up.
