Philadelphia is having a very decent regular season and is threatening to make the playoffs for the first time in recent years. The Flyers didn't have the most productive start to the season, but they gradually gained good momentum and started to regain their tournament spots. That being said, they have had a problematic last month as well. In the previous 16 games, the Pennsylvanians had only six wins, and in ten cases they failed. The day before, they lost in overtime to Carolina - 2:3, which does not prevent them from sitting in seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings, but the pursuers are already on their heels.

Boston is getting closer and closer to winning the President's Trophy for the second year in a row. Last season was the only success for the Bears, as they were eliminated in the playoffs after the first round, but now they clearly intend to work on their mistakes and compete for the Stanley Cup. In the last seven meetings they have won five times, losing only to St. Louis and the Rangers - 1:5 and 2:5, respectively. Boston is still in first place in the NHL standings.

Philadelphia and Boston are solving their own tournament problems at the finish of the regular season: the Flyers are trying to maintain their positions inside the Cup Eight of the Eastern Conference, and the Bears are trying to win the President's Cup. So far, the success of the Black and Yellow is more believable, as they are in better shape than the Pennsylvanians. In addition, in favour of Jim Montgomery's wards says the statistics of head-to-head meetings, as they have won seven of the last nine meetings.

We have the right to expect high goal-scoring activity from the upcoming confrontation. In the last four matches with Philadelphia, there were 31 shots on goal (7.75 average per game), while Boston in the three previous battles scored and conceded a total of 26 pucks (8.67 average per game). In addition, in the last five head-to-head meetings, the Flyers and Bears have scored 38 pucks against each other (7.60 per game average).
