Oilers vs Flames Prediction

I’m on the Flames in this one. I just feel like Calgary is the team in the better position in this matchup as Connor McDavid’s status continues to be up in the air, and when he’s banged up, the Oilers are a lot harder to get behind. On the other side, the Flames have had success on the road in this matchup and in a rivalry game, plus money sounds like a decent proposition. Give me the Flames and the plus money on the road in this spot.
