Philadelphia Flyers vs. Washington Capitals – 7:00 on NBC Sports

G has a Goal & 6 Assists in the Flyers Last 5

The Flyers travel down 95 Sunday night to visit the Washington Capitals in the continuation of a recently heated rivalry. They will do so without JVR, a key component to the already constantly shuffling line-up. The Caps and Flyers face off for the third time this season, with the series even at one game per side. Both Philly and Washington have played mediocre hockey as of late, as the Caps have recorded only four wins over their past ten games and the Flyers just 5, over that same stretch. Although the Flyers hold a nine point advantage over the Caps in the standings, Washington actually has a better chance of hosting a playoff series with 18 games remaining, because they trail Florida by only three points in the weak Southeast division. The Flyers look to keep the momentum going from their spectacular performance against the Islanders Thursday, when previously stagnant players Danny Briere and Jaromir Jagr finally got off the snide. Meanwhile, Washington hopes to erase the memories of their last game (5-0 loss to NJ) by capturing a win against their former division rival.Flyers-Capitals Game Preview & Flyers Season Statistics: http://tinyurl.com/7s29v3z
