The game can be live streamed for free here. Philadelphia fans can hear all of the action on 97.1 The Fanatic while Chicago fans can do the same on WGN 720.

Philadelphia is fresh off of winning its first game of the season with a 6-5 triumph over the Dallas Stars after losing four straight games to start it off while Chicago is in search of its second straight win and is coming off of a 2-1 victory over the Nashville Predators.

The Flyers hope to have defenseman Braydon Coburn in the lineup after he has been sidelined since sustaining a lower-body injury on Oct. 8.

"He looked good," Flyers coach Craig Berube said of his last practice per NHL.com. "He's probably close as he can get to ready to go, so I'll just make a game-time decision. [I'll] make sure he feels good [Tuesday] coming in here." 

Three players pace Philadelphia with seven points thus far this season, including Wayne Simmonds (five goals, two assists) and  Jakub Voracek and Claude Giroux, who each have two tallies and five helpers.

The Blackhawks are dealing with an injury to goaltender Corey Crawford (upper-body), so Antti Raanta will get the start Tuesday.

"You try to be ready every day because you never know what's going to be going on in here," Raanta told NHL.com. "Of course it's a little bit different morning when you come up here and you hear that you're going to play. [But] I feel good and I'm ready to go."

Raanta is making his 2014-15 debut after going 13-5-4 for Chicago last season with a 2.71 goals-against average and a .897 save percentage. Philadelphia is likely to counter with Steve Mason, who is 1-0-1 and has yielded four goals on 43 shots in two starts thus far.

The Blackhawks will try to beat Mason with a lineup that has been paced by Patrick Sharp (two goals, two assists) and captain Jonathan Toews (one marker, three helpers) who each have a team-high four points.

The Flyers look to build on their first win of the season while the Blackhawks try for their second two-game winning streak on the campaign when the puck drops on these two teams at the United Center tonight live from Chicago.
