Philadelphia Hits the Road In Search of a Fourth Win in a Row

Blues Look To Keep On Rolling Under Interim Head Coach

The Philadelphia Flyers look to continue to rise up the Metropolitan Division standings when they head to meet the St. Louis Blues. The Flyers-Blues odds is approaching Pick’em status with St. Louis priced at -115 to win and visiting Philadelphia coming in with -105 odds.

The teams have split the last four meetings with each of those games having been decided by at least two goals.
Philadelphia has won its last three games with two of those wins coming in overtime or in a shootout. St. Louis had won three of its previous four games before an overtime loss to the Boston Bruins.

Center Sean Couturier and defenseman Jamie Drysdale are questionable and forward Noah Cates is out for Philadelphia.

For St. Louis, while defenseman Justin Faulk returned in the loss to Boston after missing the last five games. Keep that in mind when it comes to the NHL picks and parlays since Faulk has four goals and two assists in his last nine games against Philadelphia.

St. Louis is 8-4-1 since the Blues fired head coach Craig Berube and appointed Drew Bannister as the interim head coach.

Philadelphia began the season with +15000 odds of winning the Stanley Cup title. Those odds have moved to +6000. The championship odds have gone from +6000 to +12500.

Flyers Making Themselves Right At Home On The Road

Philadelphia is second behind only the Florida Panthers in road wins among Eastern Conference teams.

Since the start of December, the Flyers are 7-2-3 on the road. During that stretch, only Carolina and Florida have been more successful killing off penalties. Keep that in mind when it comes to the Flyers-Blues odds.

Travis Konecny leads the Flyers with 13 goals and 24 points in road games. He has four short-handed goals on the road this season.

Forwards Konecny, Joel Farabee, and Bobby Brink all have plus/minus ratings of +10 or better on the road.

The Las Vegas odds total has gone under in 13 of Philadelphia’s last 20 road games.

Familiar Names Leading the Blues

Since the start of December, the top goal scorers for the Blues at home are Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou with eight goals each in 19 games.

Thomas, in his sixth season with the Blues, has 16 goals and that is four shy of the career-high.

Kyrou is coming off a career-best 37 goals. He has 12 goals in 41 games with seven coming in the last 12 contests. He could play a key role when it comes to the Flyers-Blues odds.

Veteran winger Kevin Hayes has been in the news for the wrong reasons. A report claimed that what happened with Hayes as he left the Flyers played a role in former first-round pick Cutter Gauthier, making it clear that he didn’t want to play for the Flyers. He was traded to Anaheim.

St. Louis has won six of its last nine home games and is 8-2 in its last 10 meetings against Metropolitan Division teams.
