Key Matchups
Caufield vs. Provorov: We know Nick is a sniper, but can he get past Philly's top D-man? This is a battle we need to watch closely.
Dach vs. Laughton: Two young centers looking to make an impact. This one could be a real energy battle in the middle of the ice.
Special Teams: Habs' power play has been a bit inconsistent lately, so they'll need to be on point against a Flyers penalty kill that's been pretty solid.
