Ducks vs. Flames Prediction

I’m on the Flames here. The Ducks are just unbackable at this point. The Flames aren’t much better but at least they have offensive potential and are coming off of a win. Anaheim’s struggling to find the back of the net with any sort of consistency, and I think this is a spot for the Flames to pick up a huge confidence boosting win. Give me the Flames in this one.
