Flyers catch big break, now need to get back on track

The Philadelphia Flyers are competing for a playoff spot; however they are struggling to find ways to get points lately. The Flyers have only won 9 of their last 23 games, however the teams behind them are struggling as well.

The New York Islanders entered today's game against the New York Rangers, only 3 points behind the Flyers with 2 games in hand. However, the Islander lost again in regulation to the Rangers 5-2.

The Islanders have now lost 4 straight games and now it's time for the Flyers to get back on track. A few teams behind them in the standings have been struggling but the Flyers cannot rely on that for the final 14 games of the season. The next five games for the Flyers will be tough but they need to find ways to get some points in these games.

However, the Flyers schedule does get easier down the stretch, hopefully, this can help the Flyers improve their play.
