Philadelphia Flyers forward Jakub Voracek is expected to play against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2017 Coors Light Stadium Series at Heinz Field despite sustaining an undisclosed injury at practice Thursday. Voracek has four points (one goal, three assists) in his past six games. The Flyers look to avoid distractions and pick up two critical points. "That's the business job here at hand," coach Dave Haskstol said on Friday. "(You become) really focused on winning the two points that are at hand tomorrow night." Philadelphia (63 points), which did not hold a morning skate Saturday, is five points behind the New York Islanders for the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Eastern Conference. They are 2-5-1 in their past eight games and 3-10-2 in the past 15 road games. The Flyers will look to win their first outdoor game after losing their previous two (0-1-1). They lost 2-1 in overtime to the Boston Bruins in the 2010 Winter Classic at Heinz Field and 3-2 to the New York Rangers in the 2012 Winter Classic at Citizens Bank Park. On Friday, Hakstol said the Flyers understand that Saturday will be unique. "There has been some build up, obviously," Hakstol said. "You certainly look forward to this date on the schedule because it's a pretty special opportunity."
