The Pittsburgh Penguins have controlled the Flyers en route to a 3-1 series lead. They may have had a letdown heading to Philly up 2-0, but if there were any doubts about the better team, they were resolved quickly when the Pen's took game four by a 3-1 count. They have scored three or more goals in all four games, and seven straight overall, and have now won six straight at home. The Penguins won't be playing to a letdown here, as they have a chance to close out the series in five games on home ice. The Flyers two road losses in this series has left them with a 14-37 mark in their last 51 games against teams with a .600 home winning percentage or better. The Flyers have a poor reputation and history in Pittsburgh where they are just 2-15 in their last 17. Pittsburgh closes out the series tonight.
