The Los Angeles Kings have been road warriors all season, so I did consider them in this spot, but they’re on the end of a back to back and running into a hot Flames side. The Calgary Flames are riding a 3-game winning streak where the offense has caught fire, and that includes blasting an Oilers team that the Kings just lost to. We’re getting pick ’em prices. Give me the Flames at home with the rest advantage.
