LiontipsPittsburgh vs Philadelphia. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (February 16, 2022).
Command Analysis
Pittsburgh have recovered from a dip in form and have already mounted a three-game winning streak. The Penguins celebrated success at Boston (4:2), Ottawa (2:0) and New Jersey (4:2). The team was excellent on the defensive against the Bruins, and goalie Jarry made 43 saves.
Before that, the Pens lost many points at home, but despite those disappointing results, they retained their position in the top-3 in the East.
Nine of Philadelphia's players are sidelined with injuries which has seriously affected the team's form. The Flyers lost two games to Detroit (3:6 and 2:4), who aren't a particularly powerful force either. Hart had a bad game and saved less than 90% of the shots on his goal.
The Flyers lost their last eight games away from home and will be looking for redemption today.
