My top Flyers vs. Penguins predictions and NHL picks<\/a> expect another low-scoring bout in the Battle of Pennsylvania tonight.<\/p>\n

Flyers vs Penguins Game 2 predictionFlyers vs Penguins best bet: Under 6 (-120)<\/p>\n

The Philadelphia Flyers<\/a> played elite defense down the stretch with just 2.41 goals against during a 15-5-1 heater, and the attention to detail carried over in Game 1 against the Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a>. Pittsburgh generated just 1.96 expected goals on eight high-danger scoring chances.<\/p>\n

A trade off for the strong defensive play is Philadelphia doesn\u2019t generate many quality chances, either, and the Flyers finished with just 2.77 expected goals on nine high-danger scoring chances in Game 1.<\/p>\n

The Pens were a surprising high-scoring team during the regular season, and especially at 5-on-5 with the second-most goals per 60 minutes and second-highest team shooting percentage, so the Philly defense is kick-starting a splash of statistical correction to the unsustainable Pittsburgh attack.<\/p>\n
