The Flyers sat comfortably in 3rd place of the metropolitan division up until a month ago with an 88% chance of making the playoffs.
Then in the last month, they went on an 8 game losing streak costing them there spot in the playoffs as they sit just outside of the last wild card spot.
The Flyers will need a lot to go right if they hope to may the playoffs after this weekend. They play the Devils Saturday and if they are able to win while the Capitals, Penguins and Red Wings all lose they will hold the last Wild Card spot.
The main issue is if everything goes right for the Flyers tonight, they will only have one game left while the other 3 teams they are battling with will have 2.
The Flyers will not only have to win their last two games but hope things go terribly wrong for the other teams as well, it won't be easy but it is possible.
