Winnipeg Jets vs Calgary Flames prediction

The Calgary Flames are getting the benefit of the doubt here because they’re at home, and they have won 3 of the last 4 meetings against the Jets. However, we’re getting the much better team at plus money, and that’s a spot I can’t turn down. The Flames are also coming off a rough week, which includes shutouts in 2 of their last 3 games. It’s hard to back the Flames with confidence here. Give me the better team at the better price in what feels like a steal on Monday afternoon.
