One of the most attractive clashes in the NHL schedule for next Thursday, January 06th corresponds to the confrontation between Philadelphia Flyers and Washington Capitals, teams from the Metropolitan Division that will face at 06:00 pm CST. This game definitely has the Capitals as the big favorites to win due to the great performance they’ve had during the regular season.
However, Philadelphia Flyers have totally lost all the momentum that some weeks ago took them very close to the playoffs’ spots, currently holding a streak of 4 losses in a row in which they haven’t been able to score more than 2 goals per game. In this regard, the Flyers remark as the worst offensive line in the Metropolitan Division after only being able to score 156 goals throughout the season.
On Washington Capitals’ side, the regular season has been a whole opposite history as they’ve remained at the top spot of the Western Conference for a very long time due to their impressive offensive performance. Even so, the irregularity has reached them out as they were only able to win 2 out of their last 5 games, being the only rescuable that they scored 4 or more goals during their last 3 games in a row.
