This is a 10* NON-CONF DOG OF THE MONTH on the Flames.
After four straight losses, I'm expecting the Flames to risk life and limb getting into shooting and passing lanes to secure a victory here. The road ahead won't get any easier for Calgary, with Edmonton coming to town on Sunday, followed by a tough three-game Eastern road-swing.
The Devils have been playing well lately, winning their last two by a combined score of 12-2, most recently a 6-0 win at Vancouver. With three nights off before a final road game at Edmonton before heading home though, I say this sets up as a bit of a complacent letdown spot for New Jersey. The Devils have looked good, but have also stumbled this season. That's going to be the case here vs. this determined home side in my estimation.
Note that the Devils are just 3-9 in their last 12 after scoring five or more goals in their previous game.
New Jersey is just 3-9 its last 12 in Calgary and just 5-15 the last 20 in the series overall.
If history is any precedence, then the Flames have to be loving their chances to get untracked tonight in front of the home town crowd (note that the Flames are 5-2 in their last seven after scoring two goals or less in their previous outing.)
CALGARY has had a difficult schedule to open the season, but despite that, look for the desperate home side to find a way to deliver the goods in this fantastic underdog investment opportunity.
Good luck, NP
