'We're The Underdogs': Flyers Ready To Take On Pens In NHL Playoffs
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Flyers are embracing the underdog role as they head into the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
They will face the two- time defending Stanley Cup Champions, the Pittsburgh Penguins.
"We're the underdogs," said head coach Dave Hakstol. "We're pegged that, we know that."
While the Penguins have a great depth chart, captain Claude Giroux believes the Flyers just have to limit the opportunity for "special" plays.
