This series has been more than a little lopsided. In fact, that may be an understatement.
The Washington Capitals have cruised to three straight victories over the Philadelphia Flyers to open up the Stanley Cup playoffs and, tonight, the top team in the NHL can clinch a sweep over their rivals.
The key? The power play. The Capitals have been nothing short of dominant on the man-advantage and even set a franchise-record with five power-play goals in Game 3. On the flip side, Philadelphia is 0-for-13 on the power play throughout the series, while forward Claude Giroux, Jakub Voracek and Wayne Simmonds have combined for one point.
The Flyers will also be without Pierre-Edouard Bellemare who was suspended for one game after checking Dmitry Orlov into the boards on Monday night. In other words, this is going to be one difficult game for Philadelphia to win.
Puck drop is slated for 7 p.m. ET and the game is being nationally broadcast on NBCSN. Don’t worry if you wont’ be near a TV though or even near a computer. We’ve got ways to stream the game online and on mobile:
