Flyers-Jets preview: Philly’s final road game of ugly season     

The Philadelphia Flyers will play their final road game of their sad-sack season Wednesday, facing the underachieving Winnipeg Jets at Canada Life Centre.

Philly (25-44-11) is 11-24-5 on the road. Only Montreal has fewer road wins (10).

In full seasons, the Flyers have had fewer road victories just once since 1991-92.

The Flyers will conclude their season Friday against Ottawa at the Wells Fargo Center. Their two remaining games will help decide where they finish in the draft lottery.

Winnipeg (36-32-11), led by Kyle Connor’s career-high 45 goals, has much more firepower than the Flyers. Connor was picked 17^th overall in 2015, the year the Flyers took Ivan Provorov No. 7 in the first round.

Storylines

Goalie Felix Sandstrom (0-3-1) is looking for his first NHL win. He played well in the Flyers’ 3-1 loss Monday in Chicago, and has a .914 save percentage in four starts.

The Jets are coming off Sunday’s 4-1 home win over Colorado and will be trying to keep the momentum going. They will also attempt avenging a 3-1 loss (with an empty-net goal) to the Flyers on Feb. 1.

Flyers’ projected lineup

Line 1:  Kevin Hayes centering Joel Farabee and Bobby Brink. (Farabee was moved fro center back to left wing to try to jump-start his offense. He has one goal over his last 10 games and is minus-11 in that span.)

Line 2: Scott Laughton centering James van Riemsdyk and Travis Konecny.

Line 3: Morgan Frost centering Noah Cates and Owen Tippett.

Line 4: Nate Thompson centering Oskar Lindblom and Zack MacEwen.

Defense: Ivan Provorov and Ronnie Attard; Linus Hogberg and Travis Sanheim; Keith Yandle and Egor Zamula.

Goalie: Sandstrom.

For the Philadelphia Flyers, rookie defenseman Attard is plus-8 in his last six games, and he has collected a goal and an assist in that span.
