Calgary Flames

Calgary is in ninth place in the West standings with 67 points. This result is hardly a success regarding how the Flames won the Pacific Division. And now they are only fifth in the Division standings, outside the playoff zone. And the team does not shine with the latest results – a long series of four defeats in a row. In the last match, Calgary lost to Toronto with a score of 1:2. Generally, the team needs to get together to achieve the playoffs.

Minnesota Wild

Minnesota satisfies its fans in the current season. The Wild show great hockey and have every chance to take a leading position in the West. On the eve of the match, they are fifth with 76 points, but they are only four behind the first Vegas. And in the Central Division standings, the team is generally second. Minnesota looks excellent in the last matches – in eight seven wins with only one defeat in OT. In the past, they managed to beat Vancouver 2-1.

Expert Betting Tips

For some reason, experts of betting companies consider Calgary to be the favorite of the upcoming match. It is strange, considering that the Flames are going through four defeats in a row, and the Wild are going through eight meetings without failures. It is unlikely that Minnesota, which is going to the top of the West, will be afraid of a team not even in the playoff zone.
