The Flyers return from the All-Star break started with a successful weekend, earning three out of a possible four points against the Penguins and Avalanche.
For several weeks, the Flyers have been playing the league's best teams on a consistent basis. The next two games present an opportunity to earn some points against some of the league's worst teams.
It starts on Monday night with a game in Detroit against the last-place Red Wings.
Game time is 7:30 p.m.
