Philadelphia at New York

Premium Pick

After a 7-1 rout of Pittsburgh, I don't see New York getting up quite enough for this game. Philly, afterall, has dropped six of their last eight games and their last one 0-6 to Tampa Bay. On the flipside, I expect Philly to be hungry here after such an embarrasing loss. The Flyers haven't lost on the road following a loss this season (they are 8-0). Home teams at-100 to -150 that are outscoring their opponents by 0.3+ goals/game, after scoring 6 goals or more in their previous game are just 9-38 (19%) since 1996. Let's not forget that Philly has averaged 3.5 goals per game on the road this year where they are converting 11.8% SOG. So, they can score. Their defense is another story but I think they can score enough here to pull off the upset. Two stars on the more motivated team - Philadelphia.
