CAL Flames vs CHI Blackhawks Prediction: the guests won’t lose

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on December 22. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

They are trying to cling to points, but each time they lack just a little bit. In the last two meetings Calgary lost in overtime - first to Boston with a score of 3:4, and after Ottawa (2:3). Thus, they could not keep the closest position to the cup zone. Utah, which has gained a crazy form, was ahead of them. At the moment, the Flames can settle for tenth place, having 37 points in the asset. If Calgary continues to perform in the same vein, then the playoffs are out of the question.

We want to believe that Chicago has found its formula for success. Moreover, the team this season has all the resources to fight for a place in the cup zone, but it lacked balance in defense, so the wicket of the Hawks is one of the most available in the West - 102 runs. In three extreme meetings they disappointed Islanders (5:3), Washington (3:2) and Seattle (3:1). Thus, the Blackhawks rose from the bottom to the penultimate position with 26 points.

Bookmakers give preference to the first collective, with which we do not agree. Recently, Chicago has played with new colors. The team has become more competent in defense and offense. Even Washington could not resist such a game, and now in the opposite corner of the most unstable Calgary, which has already fallen to tenth place. In our opinion, the Hawks will be able to record their fourth win in a row.
