Philadelphia at Boston

Boston struggled badly the first week but has turned things around quickly, winning two in a row. David Krejci is off to a great start with a five-game point streak and he has scored a goal in all but one game. The Bruins lead the NHL with seven power-play goals while converting a league-best 38.9 percent of their opportunities. Boston is well-rested and 5-1 after a victory, plus 32-12 against the Metropolitan Division. They face a Philadelphia team that dropped a 2-1 home decision to Dallas on Tuesday and is winless on the road. This is the second of a back-to-back spot and the Flyers are 5-11 playing on no days rest. Goalie Steve Mason is 0-2-1 with a 4.22 goals-against average and .875 save percentage. The Flyers are 7-23 against a team with a losing record. The Flyers also lost all three meetings with the Bruins last season and are on an 8-22 run against the Bruins, including 0-5 at Boston. In addition, the home team is 7-3 when these northeast rivals square off. Play Boston.
