With both teams struggling to score goals, look for tonight's Blackhawks, Flyers game in Philadelphia to remain under six.

Today we expect very few goals to be scored as the Chicago Blackhawks do battle with the Philadelphia Flyers.

It's not a secret that both offenses struggle at scoring goals. Chicago is averaging 3.2 goals per game on the season and only 1.8 goals per game in their last five games. Philadelphia is averaging only 1.9 goals per game, and only 1.6 goals per game in their last five.

While both of these teams have weak defenses, the fact of the matter still remains that talent is needed to score goals. The bottom line: the Chicago Blackhawks and Philadelphia Flyers don't have the talent that is needed to score many goals.

It's also good to note that the under is 28-10 in the Blackhawks' last 38 road games after allowing three goals or more for two straight games. We should see no more then five combined goals tonight!

Play: Blackhawks-Flyers Under 6

I think the over is the right way to go in this game. Both teams can't stop a sneeze.
