Flyers look to cast aside Blue Jackets for second time this week, maintain playoff positioning

With the Eastern Conference playoff picture getting tighter seemingly by the day, the Flyers just need to keep winning.

But it’s not only enough to keep winning, the Flyers have to do so while playing head-to-head with a slew of their fellow playoff hopeful competitors, too. Take the Blue Jackets, for instance, who the Flyers dispatched on Tuesday night at the Wells Fargo Center, and will be the opponent tonight in Columbus.

After making things look easy last time around, the Flyers will look to cap the short home-and-home series by taking a bit out of the Blue Jackets’ hopes before three-straight home games against the Jets, Sharks, and Rangers starting this weekend.
