Філадельфія Флаєрс - Колумбус Блу Джекетс Прогнози та Поради

Columbus owns a five-game winning streak over Philadelphia (3-0-0 last season, three decided in shootouts) and faces a Flyers offense missing its three top-six wingers - Travis Konecny (lower body, IR), Owen Tippett (upper body, IR), and Tyson Foerster (hand, day-to-day) - plus long-term absentee Nikita Grebenkin. Philadelphia ranks 32nd in goals per game (1.85) and has scored three or fewer in 10 of 13 games; rookie Matvei Michkov (8G) carries a depleted attack. Columbus, despite missing defensemen Ivan Provorov and Dante Fabbro, retains Zach Werenski and Damon Severson (25 and 23 career points vs. PHI) and gets Cam Talbot on a .963 save-percentage high. The Blue Jackets' 4th-ranked goals-against structure (3.33 GA/GP, inflated by two blowouts) and H2H stranglehold point to a tight, low-scoring Columbus win - the last three meetings in Philadelphia finished 2-1 (SO), 3-2, and 2-1.
