Chicago vs Calgary Prediction: the Flames Might Lose Points

Prediction for the NHL match between Chicago Blackhawks vs Calgary Flames, which will take place on March 27th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Chicago is having a poor season. It was evident from the beginning that the Hawks would struggle to get a decent result. Furthermore, injuries have plagued them, and key players have ended up in the infirmary one after another. The situation worsened due to a long series of defeats. However, they have recently stabilized, winning five out of their last nine games and maintaining 15th place in the Western Conference standings.

Despite having a stronger and more experienced roster, Calgary has not been successful in cup battles. Although they had an average season, they showed improvement, winning five consecutive matches. However, this activity was short-lived, and they continued to struggle in almost every game. The Flames have only won twice in the past eight battles, beating Vegas 4-1 and Montreal 5-2. They lost the remaining six in regulation time, so they are currently in 11th place.

Chicago is only sometimes a favorite this season. However, the upcoming match is a rare exception. The Hawks' infirmary is becoming empty. As a result, they have won four out of their last nine games. In contrast, the Flames have struggled for a long time, gaining only 4 out of 16 points (25%) in eight meetings. Also, they have an advantage, having won four out of the last five H2H meetings. 

The upcoming confrontation is expected to be highly competitive. Neither Chicago nor Calgary can make the playoffs, so there is no tournament pressure on them. In nine H2H meetings, the rivals have scored 60 goals, averaging 6.67 per game. The Blackhawks have been incredibly successful, scoring 17 goals in their last five meetings.
