Vegas Golden Knights vs. Calgary Flames Predictions

The Vegas Golden Knights arrive in Calgary with the top spot in the Pacific Division, but they’ve hit a rough patch, losing five of their last ten games. The team’s offense, led by William Karlsson with 20 points, has been inconsistent, and they’ll be looking to reignite their scoring prowess against the Flames. The Golden Knights have been formidable on defense, though, which could be a key factor in this game.

Calgary’s season has been a rollercoaster, with more downs than ups, resulting in a sub-.500 record. However, they’ve shown they can compete with top teams, as evidenced by their recent victory over the Dallas Stars. The Flames will rely heavily on Elias Lindholm, their points leader, to spark their offense. Goaltending could also play a crucial role, with Jacob Markstrom aiming to improve upon his recent performances between the pipes.

This game could come down to key player matchups and special teams. Both teams have players capable of turning a game on its head, and it will be interesting to see how the Flames handle the Golden Knights’ top scorers. With Vegas looking to maintain their division lead and Calgary fighting to get back into playoff contention, expect a tightly contested game with both teams eager to secure crucial points.

Vegas Golden Knights vs. Calgary Flames Pick

The Vegas Golden Knights, despite their recent struggles, are still leading the Pacific Division and have shown resilience throughout the season. With a strong defensive core and the ability to bounce back after losses, the Golden Knights are poised to take advantage of a Flames team that has been inconsistent at best. The Golden Knights’ recent road performance and their ability to win in tight games, as evidenced by their last head-to-head victory against the Flames, give them the edge in this matchup. Furthermore, their top players like William Karlsson are due for a big game, and this could be the perfect opportunity for Vegas to get back on track.

While the historic head-to-head data suggests an even matchup, the current form and standings indicate that Vegas has the upper hand. The Flames may have the home-ice advantage, but the Golden Knights have shown they can win in Calgary. With the Flames’ recent inability to capitalize on being the favorite and the Golden Knights’ success as the underdog in recent meetings, the smart money is on Vegas to come out on top. The Golden Knights’ goaltending has also been solid, and if they can contain the Flames’ offense as they have in the past, they should be able to secure a win and maintain their division lead.

The Pick: Vegas Golden Knights -115 (PointsBet)
