The match between the Washington Capitals vs Philadelphia Flyers will take place at Wells Fargo Center on Wednesday, September 28 at 7:00 PM ET.
Philadelphia Flyers and Washington Capitals will compete in the NHL Preseason competition on September 29 at 4:30 AM (IST). We’ll review the most recent stats and the strategy used by the opposition in this match. 55 occasions saw the teams square battle. Their most recent meeting, which took place on April 13, 2022, was 9:2. The current head-to-head record between the groups is 26–29. It’s important to remember that Philadelphia Flyers and Washington Capitals average 5.9 goals per game while playing each other. These are teams who score goals rather well.
Washington cannot afford any further extended absences because they are already without Backstrom, Wilson, and Carl Hagelin (lower body, eye). With an aging core that includes defenseman John Carlson, Nick Jensen, and Dmitry Orlov, as well as forwards Ovechkin, 37, T.J. Oshie, 35, and Lars Eller, 33, it will be crucial to budget rest to keep those players healthy over the long season. Oshie, who underwent off-season surgery to repair a core injury, had a limited season last year due to injuries and illness, finishing with 25 points (11 goals, 14 assists) in 44 games during the regular season. However, he proved his worth by scoring six goals in six games during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
