Fresh off of a 3-1 over the Arizona Coyotes in their last contest, the Philadelphia Flyers will face off with the Ottawa Senators for the second time this season. Philly fell to their Eastern Conference counterpart by a score of 2-1 in their first meeting, looking lackluster in the first 40 minutes only to turn it on in the third but fall by one. The Flyers must play a consistent all-around game this time around if they want to salvage the season-series against a team in Ottawa they’re clearly better than on paper.
One way they can do so is by taking advantage of a below-average Senators’ defense.
