Philadelphia has won the last two meetings, which both came by 2-1 scores in February. The Flyers will try to snap a five-game winning streak by the Blue Jackets, who still are the underdogs in this game and they're two points behind the Flyers in the Metropolitan Division standings. Petr Mrazek, who started the season with Detroit, has a 2.88 goals-against average with four shutouts this season and he made 19 saves against Columbus in his Philly debut on Feb. 22. The Blue Jackets are 6-14 their last 20 road contests and 2-5 their last seven with two days rest. The home team is 20-7-1 the last 28 meetings and the Blue Jackets have managed a total of only four goals in three games against Philadelphia this season. Look for Philly to bounce back from a tough 3-2 loss to Vegas on Monday. Play the Flyers.
