The Flyers will of course stick with Vladar between the pipes as they aim to take a commanding 2-0 series lead on Monday. Vladar will be hoping for another night of light work in Game 2, after the Flyers limited the Penguins to just 17 shots on goal enroute to a 3-2 victory in the series opener. Just as they were in Game 1, Vladar and the Flyers are slight underdogs on the money line for Game 2, entering action at +125.

Besides his recent blip, the 28-year-old Czech goalie has been tremendous lately, allowing just one goal in four of his last five games (4-1-0). The Flyers enter Monday's contest as -111 home favourites against a Hurricanes team that has scored four or more goals in six of their last seven games (6-1-0).
