They will be on the road and in an arena where they are 0-5 during the playoffs the last two seasons.
Philly, who led Pittsburgh in the standings nearly all season, didn't expect to be on the verge of elimination in a Game 5 against Pittsburgh for the second successive spring. They lost Game 5 there 6-0 during the Eastern Conference final last season, but no one among these Flyers expects a similar letdown tonight.
The Penguins once blew a 3-1 series lead, against the Islanders who they led 3-0 in 1975, but they haven't done it since. Of the 229 teams that trailed an NHL playoff series 3-1, only 20 recovered to win.
The Flyers' only chance of making it to the second round is for the Penguins to falter badly. For all your NHL playoff odds head over to the Bodog Sportsbook.
