Calgary Flames vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction
Calgary had their winning streak snapped in their last game against Ottawa on the road, but they have played very well over the last two weeks. The Flames are still only scoring 2.64 goals per game, but their defense has been very good in their last five games. Detroit has won two of their last three games, but they are only scoring 2.52 goals per game this year. Neither team is scoring many goals right now and I think we are going to see a defensive battle, so I like the under here.
