Two teams that are surging, the Philadelphia Flyers and the Colorado Avalanche, will meet tonight when the Avs host the Flyers at Pepsi Center. Philadelphia is 6-1 in their last 7 but will be without their top scorer, Travis Konecny, who is sidelined with a concussion and that’s going to hurt. Colorado is 6-0-1 in their last 7. The Avalanche are tough at home, with a record of 8-3-2, and they are 8-1-2 against Eastern Conference teams.
TONIGHT’S PICK: COLORADO AVALANCHE
