NHL FREE PICK: Take Philadelphia. According to latest NHL trends, the Devils are 8-17 in the last 25 meetings in series and are 3-10 in the last 13 meetings in Philadelphia. Flyers are 4-1 in their last 5 home games, 13-5 in their last 18 games as a favorite of -110 to -150, are 5-2 in their last 7 vs. Atlantic and are 5-2 in their last 7 vs. a team with a winning record. The Flyers don’t want to go back to New Jersey at 1-1. Danny Briere leads the Flyers and had the overtime winner in Game 1. Claude Giroux scored twice in Game 1 and now has seven goals in seven playoff games after scoring just 16 in 70 regular-season contests for the Flyers. This one won’t be as close as Game 1.
