Philadelphia at Chicago

The Blackhawks beat the Flyers in six games last June on way to winning the Stanley Cup. The Flyers lead the Eastern Conference and seem to be on a mission. Chicago didn't look so hot to start the year, but they have been playing much better of late. This is a big home game for them and I think they show up. Chicago is hot, having won by an average score of 4.2 to 1.4 in their last five games. Since last season, the Blackhawks are 54-27 when facing a winning team and 36-13 vs. starting goalies that save 92%+ of shots. Versus elite teams (those outscoring their opponents by 0.5+ goals per game), Chicago really steps it up to the tune of 23-9 over the past two seasons. I like the home team to get it done here.
