The Philadelphia Flyers (31-23-11) are back at home for another big game, hosting the Columbus Blue Jackets (33-21-11) on Saturday at Xfinity Mobile Arena.

Philly has played itself back into the conversation, winning its last two games and five of its past seven. Since the Olympic break ended, the Flyers are 6-3-0.

The Blue Jackets have picked up points in their last eight games, but have only earned a win in four of the games. Still, over the last 10 games, they have lost just once in regulation, and are 5-1-4.

This is the biggest of the season, so far, for the Flyers. Puck drop is at 7:30 p.m. EST. Here is how the Flyers are expected to line up.

Game Notes

As mentioned earlier, this is the biggest game of the Flyers’ season thus far. The Flyers are now just five games out of the final wild card spot in the east, and still with three games vs. Columbus, sit four points back of the Blue Jackets as the first team out. A massive two points are on the line tonight.

Christian Dvorak was at morning skate in a regular contact jersey. However, it looks like he will be a game-time decision after rotating into the lineup after line rushes. It seemed like Dvorak took some friendly fire on Thursday that shook him up, so that is something to keep an eye on.

Garrett Wilson was recalled by the Flyers on Saturday ahead of the game vs. Columbus. However, it does not look like he will draw into the lineup on Saturday. Even with a potential Dvorak game-time decision, Wilson did not take part in any of the main line rushes.

Owen Tippett has been skating at a whole new level recently. He is going to be in need of a big game or two if he wants a chance to hit 30 goals this season. That does not seem out of the realm of possibility. I am keeping a close eye on Tippett on Saturday.
