7:05 PM EST. Great sell high opportunity here on the Flyers after they reeled off three wins in a row, five wins in their last six games and 11 out of a possible 12 points over their last six also. The Flyers haven’t lost in regulation since October 27th in a 6-1 loss to the Islanders but their winning ways are very simply unsustainable for several reasons. First, Philly’s goaltending is a bad game waiting to happen. Brian Elliott ranks 32nd and 25th respectively in Goals Saves Above Average (GSAA) and Quality SV % (QS%). Furthermore, when we look at the Flyers current hot streak, we see it came against a bunch of struggling teams. It may surprise you to learn that the Flyers have posted the NHL’s worst record against quality competition. Philadelphia is 1-5 against top-5 competition and 1-7 against top-10.

Roberto Luongo was injured in the Panthers first game of the year. The Panthers went 0-3-1 at home to start the season and lost eight of their first 10 games. Do you think it’s coincidence that they are 4-0 since Luongo returned? Do you think it’s coincidence that the Coyotes struggled all year when Antti Raanta was out and ditto this year? Goaltending decides games and when Luongo is healthy and playing well, the Panthers might just be the most dangerous team in the league. Luongo is 3-0-0 with 1.42 GAA and .952 SC % this season and the Panthers have several hot players and three legit scoring lines. This team is so deep that Nick Bjugstad is on the third line. The Panthers come in here very warm and very confident with Luongo back there while the Flyers come in with shaky goaltending and have not proven that they can compete with playoff teams.
