The Flyers started the year playing in Europe, which is the reason they only have five games right now. They're returning after a three-game swing through Western Canada and are coming off a 6-3 loss in Edmonton Wednesday, so they are looking forward to some time at home.
Despite all of the travel, they are doing good things with puck possession, as they are second in the NHL in shot differential at plus-7.6. They rank second in fewest shots against per game at 28.0 and fourth in most shots on goal at 35.6.
Dallas ranks 28th in shots on goal at 27.6, so it could be another challenge for the Stars to create possession time in the offensive zone.
Dallas ranks last in the NHL in goals per game at 1.89, 27th in goal differential at minus-1.33, and 25th in save percentage at .888.
