| NHL | (11) Pittsburgh Penguins at (12) Philadelphia Flyers: Total | 8:00pm EDT - Apr 25/2026 |
The PLAY: Total Over 5.5 (-120)
The Penguins are down 3-0. The last time that a team rallied from a 3-0 deficit was in 2014, when the Kings rallied to come back against the Sharks. That was just the fourth time in NHL history that it happened. While the Pens' chances of winning the series are now very slim, they won't go down without a fight. It's possible that they'll be facing the Flyers' back-up goalie as starter Dan Vladar is a game-time decision. Either way, I expect them to find a way to score some goals. They'll need to as the Flyers are averaging 3.7 goals per game in the series. If trailing, given its situation, we'll see Pittsburgh pull its goalie earlier than normal. Play the Over 5.5 (good to -130)
