Vancouver Canucks vs Calgary Flames Prediction 

Vancouver comes into this matchup after losing to Edmonton and allowing seven goals in their last game, but they had won the previous three games, which were all on the road. The Canucks are just 1-2-3 at home this season and they have allowed 17 goals in their last three home games. Calgary will be on a back-to-back after playing Los Angeles on Monday night, but they have not played well over the last few weeks. I know the Canucks haven’t played well at home this season, but I have to fade the Flames in their current form and on a back-to-back. Take Vancouver here.
