Vegas vs Philadelphia Prediction: Another Abysmal Season for the Flyers

Prediction for the NHL Vegas Golden Knights vs Philadelphia Flyers match, which will take place on December 10th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Vegas is trying not to make the same mistakes as last year this season. The Knights failed to make the playoffs for the first time in their history, so they decided to change their head coach in the offseason. By all appearances, they were right. Bruce Cassidy started to show decent results with his new wards. Suffice it to say that in 15 starting games, they gained 13 wins and encountered two losses. Yes, the Black and Golds couldn't play as consistently as they did, but they still win more often than they lose. That's why Vegas leads the Western Conference standings, 4 points ahead of their nearest rival.

Philadelphia failed last season by not making the playoffs and got a new head coach in the off-season. John Tortorella also had an excellent start, with five wins in seven games, but the results went downhill. In November, the Redbirds went on a 10-game losing streak, demonstrating the Pennsylvanians' ambition level. The Flyers have won a couple of their last five games, but that's not a sign of recovery yet. Right now, Philadelphia remains in 14th place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Vegas and Philadelphia have very different objectives in the current season. The Knights intend to again interfere in the fight for the Stanley Cup, currently leading the Western Conference standings. The Flyers also had a poor season last year, but now they're in danger of doing even worse, with 13 losses in their previous 15 games. John Tortorella's men couldn't win in six straight away games.

Not only has Philadelphia suffered one loss after another recently, but they also have a fragile defense. In their previous six road matches, the Flyers have conceded 27 goals (4.50 average per game). Poor John Tortorella does not know how to save the situation, and this statistic can only worsen, as the opponents will be the powerful attacking Western leader.
