In the final game of January, the Flyers finally snapped a 13-game losing streak and got their first and only win of the month. As the calendar turns to February, the Flyers have one game on Tuesday night before a bit of a break.
The Winnipeg Jets are in town for the final game before a week-long break that includes All-Star weekend, as the Flyers face a limited schedule throughout the month.
Game time is 7 p.m.
