Winnipeg vs Calgary: The Flames will be closer to success

On April 30, 2022, Winnipeg will host Calgary in another NHL regular-season game at the Canada Life Centre.

Winnipeg

Winnipeg have failed in the current regular season. While the Jets managed to progress in recent years, they have lost momentum. Numerous injuries and their miscalculations are to blame. The Blue and White began to pick up the pace in the second half of the season but fell apart in April, suffering eight defeats in ten games, which was a critical stretch. Yes, Dave Lowry's men outscored Colorado and Philadelphia 4-1 and 4-0 in their last two games, respectively, but it was too late. Winnipeg finished 11th in the West.

Calgary

In contrast, Calgary's performance had been gradually deteriorating over the last few years. It seemed that this team had already become rusty, so it needed a major rebuild, but it turned out that it was enough to appoint the right person as head coach. Darryl Sutter started to produce good results for the Flames at the end of last season, but he couldn't hold out any longer. In the last seven games, the Red and Yellow have not left the ice without points, allowing them to occupy second place in the West.

Interesting facts before the match

• Calgary have got points in seven consecutive games;
• Winnipeg have got points in three straight home games;
• Winnipeg have beaten Calgary in five of their last six home games;
• Calgary have scored points in nine of its last nine consecutive away games.

Expert Betting Tips

Winnipeg and Calgary were very different in the current regular championship, so the Flames will continue to fight for the Stanley Cup, and the Jets will go on an early holiday. In the last game of the regular season, Darryl Sutter will probably allow the leaders to rest. However, even without them, the Red and Yellow will be the favorites in the confrontation. Therefore, a bet on the victory of Calgary with the odds of about 1.95 is induced.

Calgary are having a lot of fun and scoring in the current regular season. Although the Flames have long since resolved their main objectives for the regular season, they continue to show bright and entertaining hockey. In their last ten games, they have scored 71 goals (7.10 goals per game average), which is a very respectable mark. It's unlikely that Winnipeg will shut down at the end of the season either. After all, the local crowd should be happy. With that in mind, we would say that Total Over 6.5 pucks for 2.10 would be a good bet.

Andrew Mangiapane is approaching the end of the regular season in top form. The Canadian forward has never been overly productive before, but this season he has broken all personal records. The 26-year-old has amassed 55 points (35 goals + 20 assists) in 81 games played, 23 points more than his previous career-high. In such a situation, it is worth looking at a bet on Andrew Mangiapane's Total Over 0.5 points for 1.90.
