Game 26 of Remaining 29: Philadelphia at Pittsburgh

April 2, 2012 Leave a comment

Pittsburgh Penguins: 48-24-6 (102 points)

4th in the Eastern Conference

 

VS.

Philadelphia Flyers: 45-24-9 (99 points)

5th in the Eastern Conference

 

 

This is likely a preview into a first rough playoff matchup. These two teams have a storied past and given the intense rivalry, expect this game to be violent at the least. Unfortunately, the Pens have had some trouble against the Flyers this year going 1-2-1 against them in four games. The Pens will finish the season on April 7 against the Flyers at home. I think Pittsburgh will split these final two games. My prediction: Pens LOSE this one.

My final 29 prediction record: 12-13
