The lames in the last game faced off against the Vegas Golden Knights and they were defeated 5-0. Dan Vlader saved 33 of the 38 shots that he faced, and that led to the defeat. The Flames are averaging 3.11 goals while their defense is giving up 3.22 goals per game. The offense is ranked 17th while the defense is ranked 17th. Rasmus Anderson has scored four goals and added six assists.

Calgary Flames vs Utah Hockey Club Prediction

Give me the Flames here. The Flames offense has been better and they are averaging 3.11 goals per game. Utah is averaging only 2.9 goals per game and their offense isn’t going to be good enough here. Look for the Flames to score four or five goals and that will be the difference. The Flames defense has struggled heading into this game but they are going to step up here. Back the Flames.
