Philadelphia Flyers vs Calgary Flames Prediction
The Philadelphia Flyers played a wild game last night that went past regulation, and now they have to catch a flight and play again. That can be a lot for guys still getting back into the routine. The Calgary Flames are rested, looked great offensively in their opener, and have won 7 of the last 10 games against the Flyers. The Flames have had a lot of offensive success in those games. In fact, the Flames have scored 3 or more goals in 8 of the last 10 games against the Flyers. There’s only one real way to go, especially with the cheap price. Give me the Flames on their home ice.
