The Flyers certainly have it rough. They have to play the best team in the league twice before the season ends. The Boston Bruins were the first team to clinch their Playoff spot, and the Flyers will face them twice. The Flyers will also face the Blues, who are in the same place as Boston but in the Western Conference. They too have clinched a Playoff spot with 103 points. Safe to say those will be three tough games for the Flyers.

Then, their final away game of the season will be against the Metropolitan Division leader in Pittsburg. This would usually seem daunting, but Philadelphia has embarrassed the Pens recently, beating them back-to-back last weekend. The Flyers’ schedule looks pretty tough, but if they play the way they have been they could tackle it with ease.

Overall, the Flyers have a very difficult schedule coming up, but they have proven themselves able to beat these tough teams this time of year. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
