Command Analysis

Philadelphia Flyers

Current form
Philadelphia has gained excellent form at the end of the regular season and is steadily earning points. In five matches, the team suffered only one defeat against Montreal (2:3). The offensive line played too passively, which is why it could not take advantage of the weak defense of the Canadiens. Before that, the Flyers played at home, where they left no chance for Buffalo (7-4), and also beat Nashville (2-1) in regular time. It is difficult to even single out any of the players, as many have distinguished themselves by their effective actions.
In the final match of the short away series, the hooligans fought with the Rangers and once again showed their attacking potential to the fullest, defeating the cops with a score of 8:5. Striker Fercer showed a great game, scoring a hat-trick. However, all these points scored no longer make any sense, since there has been no chance of qualifying for the playoffs for a long time, and the club is simply trying to finish the regular season on a good note, as far as possible from the last line in the table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ristolainen and Ellis will miss the upcoming match.

New York Islanders

Current form
It seemed that the Islanders came to their senses, as they began to steadily earn points, having won two confident victories in a row, and over serious opponents, in the person of Minnesota (3:1) and Washington (4:1). But that was the end of the club's success. The Islanders went on a visit to Nashville, where they showed a terrible defensive game, which is why they were defeated in overtime (6-7). The opponent equalized the score just two minutes before the final whistle, having realized two attacking chances. Goalkeeper Sorokin, who had to be replaced at the beginning of the third period, also showed his worst side.
Returning to the home arena, the team had to rehabilitate itself in front of the fans, but played even worse, suffering one of the most crushing defeats from the Rangers in the history of head-to-head confrontations (2:9). This time, both goalkeepers Lenox and Hogberg played terribly.
Disqualifications and injuries
Barzal and Varlamov remain in the infirmary.
