Actually you sould have listened to yourself and played the under and you would have helped yourself.
Seriously though after the first period concluded, I knew this game was not going over the total.
Why?
Flyer powerplay absolutely SUCKED!!!!!
They had three pp opportunities in the first period alone and were unable to capitalize.
Since when did the Washington Capitals become the New Jersey Devils anyway? Counting tonight's game, their last two games were road affairs and they won both by identical 2-1 scores. That won't happen too, too often. In fact it may be a three seasons before we see those two back to back results again from the Caps.
As for Philly, they played a relatively poor game overall, almost similar to their opening period snoozefest a week ago at home against the Flames. The only difference was Washington was forced to play in their own end for most of the opening period tonight because of the Flyer powerplays, which incidently 'stunk'!
Stevens may want to spend some extra time working on his club's pp tomorrow morning at 6 a.m.
