Philadelphia is the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference and has only three fewer wins than Boston. They are a talented bunch that was on a 12-3 run before the season was halted in March. They are also 13-6 versus winning teams in the second half of the season. Boston is without star winger Brad Marchand, who suffered a lower-body injury in Thursday's exhibition game against Columbus. Goaltender Tuukka Rask will start but has been recovering from a broken finger. He struggled badly in his last start, surrendering four goals on 17 shots in the exhibition game. The Flyers won two of three matchups against the Bruins this season, and the wagering value here is on Philadelphia to win the game or lose by one goal. Play Philadelphia on the puckline.
