Rogers FREE PLAY
(NHL) Philadelphia vs. Vancouver,
Money Line: -157.00 Vancouver (Home)
Result: Win
The Philadelphia Flyers have picked up just one point over their last three games and opened a five-game road-swing with a 3-1 loss at Buffalo Friday. I don't like their chances of picking up a win when visiting the Canucks at Rogers Arena tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Philadelphia's Struggles To Light Up The Lamp - Only one team (Anaheim) has a worse goals-per-game average than the Flyers and its average of two tallies per game. Jakub Voracek had 16 goals and 50 points last season but has yet to find the net despite registering a team-high 44 shots so far this season.

2. Road Woes - Vancouver was 0-2-3 over its first five home-games this season but must have received a boost of confidence from the 5-1 home-win against the by then still undefeated Canadiens last Tuesday. They Nucks will be looking to build on that momentum against a Flyers team that is 2-9 in its last 11 road games against a team with a home winning % of less than .400.

3. X-Factor - The Nucks are 6-for-15 on the man advantage over their last five games.
