Calgary Flames vs. Los Angeles Kings Prediction, NHL Odds (Sports Interaction)

Meanwhile, the Kings have won three straight games, two of them coming via shootouts. Which of these teams can extend their small hot streaks further on? Flames ...

On the other hand, the Kings are 4-1 in their last five against teams from the Western Conference and 5-2 in their last seven against teams with a losing record on the year. It’s been a tale of two goaltenders for the Kings at this point in the season. Whether it’s Jonathan Quick or Phoenix Copley in the net, the Kings have gotten vastly different results. When it comes to the total, the over has cashed in their last four games overall and their last five against teams from the Western Conference. Goaltending has been very inconsistent for this squad as they rank 15th in the league in goals allowed per game. The Flames have been struggling overall but their offense has been working of late.

The goaltending in LA has been a story all season long but only recently has that story been a positive one. BetRivers has the best option on either team, offering -109 on the LA Kings and -106 on the Calgary Flames. He has just two points overall in his last ten and has seen his ice time dip as he’s been dropped to the fourth line. He has just four goals in his last 20 games and none in his last ten. Pheonix Copley has now won three straight games and only once this season has he given up more than two goals in a game. The total on the game is at six with a few books offering the oVer at -105 and BetRivers offering the Under at -111. They’ll be going against one of the top penalty kills in the NHL as Calgary’s 81.1% ranks seventh in the league. *Note: the odds below are for sports books offered in New York. The two teams are pretty similar at 5-on-5. Both are struggling to find consistency this season.
