Calgary Flames

Jacob Markstrom has returned to the team and looked spectacular in the win against Florida, stopping 33 shots. With six points over his last five games, Blake Coleman proved that strong offensive numbers can overcome the teams weaker defensive stats. It was a tight game up until the final frame, when Calgary scored two unanswered goals to give them the win.

Anaheim Mighty Ducks Analysis

The Ducks concluded their 4-game road trip with a 2-2-0 record and ending their 5-game losing streak with 4-3 victory against Detroit. Adam Henrique scored 1 goal in the first period and now has 6 goals in 7 points in the last 5 games, while Lukas Dostal stopped 32 shots earning the win. The Ducks now return home to begin an 8-game homestand with a 5-10-0 record.

Anaheim Ducks: Better Option to Win Game Over Struggling Calgary Flames

It is questionable whether Calgary will win the game, and foreseeing the advantages, Anaheim and the+122 of the moneyline might be the better option. The Ducks have been playing better lately, especially at home, where they lost 4-2 to Winnipeg on December 10, followed by a 4-3 shootout win over Colorado Avalanche on December 2. The Flames have struggled on the road in their last four games, with 0-2-2 record and 17 goals conceded. This makes it likely for Anaheim to not just make it a one-goal loss, but also to win the game outright.
