Philadelphia has focused on defense the last two months and it's paying off, as they're on a 5-3-2 run (2-0-1 the last three). Michael Del Zotto and Wayne Simmonds scored third-period goals to rally the Flyers to a 3-1 win over the St. Louis Blues on Thursday. They have the #3 power play in the game and the Flyers are 4-0 in Saturday games. They also have speed on offense, something Boston lacks. The Bruins are on a 3-8 run. The Bruins have lost all seven of their shootouts since the beginning of December. They've converted a league-worst 13.0 percent of their shots in tiebreakers (6 of 46), scoring once in the last 26 attempts. Boston is 1-4 playing on one days rest, 0-5 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game. Play the Philadelphia Flyers.
