Five things to know about the Flyers (28-25-7) as they face the heavily favored Penguins (37-14-8) at Heinz Field in the Stadium Series matchup Saturday night:
- Both teams have struggled in the few outdoor games they have played. The Flyers are 0-1-1, the Penguins are 1-2.
- Jordan Weal is expected to return to the Flyers’ lineup after missing two games because of a head injury. Weal may move to left wing on Claude Giroux’s line, which would push Brayden Schenn back to the second-line center spot.
- This is the 279th all-time regular-season meeting between the teams.
