PREDS/FLAMES: HOT, HOTTER, HOTTEST!!
(NHL) Nashville vs. Calgary,
Money Line: -149.00 Calgary (Home)
Result: Loss
Predators/Flames

What a turnaround for the Flames this year! They are on a 6 game win streak, five of those wins on the road. It is not just Markstrom (1.33 GA, .957 save%) who is hot. Hard line coach Sutter has this team playing a disciplined brand of hockey (2nd in the league in goals allowed), and they are getting scoring from a balanced attack, counting 3.6 goals/game.

The Preds are on a 3 game win streak of their own, but I believe they will struggle vs. the Flames. Saros (2.45 GA, .917 save %) is likely in the net, and he has been solid. The Predators can’t match the Flames in offense or defense at this point. A match-up to watch will be the Flames’ formidable power play vs Nashville’s struggling PK. Take the Flames to win outright. These are generous odds.
