Kings vs Flames Prediction

The Kings are the better team and should be favored, but they’re also at home, where they just haven’t been a good team. The Flames have also won 5 of the last 6 games against the Kings. In six of the last eight games against the Flames, the Kings have scored two or fewer goals. The Flames have had issues on the road this season, but in a battle between two teams where the road / home splits don’t favor either side, I want the more favorable price. Give me the Flames.
