Detroit Red Wings vs Philadelphia Flyers : Philadelphia Flyers +1.5 (-263)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

There's a distinct difference between the Red Wings and the Flyers as they face off this Thursday. The Flyers have been soaring on the road lately, boasting a spotless 5-0 record in their last five away games. They've been nailing an average of 1.8 goals per game, while the Red Wings have been struggling to make the puck kiss the net, with a paltry 0.4 goals per game at home. The Flyers' defense also deserves a standing ovation, keeping their goals against to a respectable 2.2 compared to the Red Wings' 3.6. The Red Wings' home record of 1-4 also doesn't inspire confidence. Given these figures, it's not a leap of faith to back the Flyers with a 1.5 puck line. After all, the stats are painting a clear picture of a Flyers' advantage in this matchup.
