Calgary Flames Betting Preview
The Calgary Flames are playing a late game on Saturday night, which is not reflected in this article. The Flames are 0-1-0 this year after they lost to the Kraken by a score of 6-1 in their first game. Calgary allowed the first five goals in the game, but did score in the third to avoid the shutout. The Flames were out shot by a total of 32-25, won 51.7% of the face-offs, and went 0-1 on the power play in the game. Calgary was led by Ryan Strome, who had one goal and four shots, while Dustin Wolf stopped 26 out of 32 shots, which was an .813 save percentage in the loss.
Last year, Calgary went 34-39-9 and they finished with 77 points, which was second to last in the Pacific Division. The Flames were 19 points better than the Canucks in last, but they were 18 points behind the Golden Knights in first. Calgary started the season with a 4-3 shootout win over the Oilers, but they were just 1-8 through nine games. The Flames scored 208 goals last year, which was 32nd in the NHL, while they allowed 256 goals against, which was 21st.
Kraken vs Flames Prediction
Seattle comes into this matchup after losing to Edmonton last night, but they will be at home for the first time here. The Kraken did beat Calgary 6-1 in their season opener and the Flames will be on a back to back. I think Calgary is much better than that first game would suggest, but it looks like scoring is a major issue for them right now. I don’t love the price, but I will take Seattle to get the win at home.
