Philadelphia is a weak all-around team, heading out on the road. The Flyers are on a 2-10 run, plus 13-39 in their last 52 road games. Philadelphia's power play continues to be a sore spot, converting 14.3 percent of its chances to rank near the bottom of the league. The Flyers' eight goals with the man advantage are tied for the NHL low. Philadelphia is #30 in the league in goals scored, #20 in goals allowed and #24 in penalty killing. They face an Ottawa team that is outstanding on offense - eighth in goals scored, seventh on the power play, in second place in the division behind mighty Montreal. Ottawa beat Columbus 3-0 on Thursday and plays its fifth straight home game tonight. Goalie Craig Anderson faces a Flyers team which is scoring a league-worst 1.79 goals per game, including only eight during a six-game home losing streak. The Senators are 21-10 when playing on one day of rest and the home team is 20-8 when these teams clash, with the Flyers 7-22-5 in this building. Take Ottawa to dominate in this one.
