The Philadelphia Flyers have their backs against the wall after the Washington Capitals have taken the first two games of their first round series in the 2016 Stanley Cup playoffs. Luckily for the Flyers, the series will be heading up I-95 from Washington D.C. to the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, where the Flyers had a 23-10-8 record during the regular season. ‘

The Capitals, who went 27-10-4 on the road this season, will be tested against an emotional Flyers team who will be motivated after a pre-game tribute to the late Ed Snider. They will be on a mission to make sure the Flyers don’t get any momentum going with a win.
