Kings at Flames picks and predictions

Prediction

Flames 3, Kings 2

Moneyline

BET FLAMES (-130).

Calgary will be extra motivated to beat Los Angeles after losing by 6 goals in their last meeting. The Kings have been great at home lately, but have won just 4 of their last 9 games on the road. The Flames have not lost 3 straight games vs. Los Angeles since Nov. 6, 2016, and should be able to get revenge for the 8-2 blowout.

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS.

Five of the Kings’ last 6 losses have been by just 1 goal. Los Angeles +1.5 (-220) should hit, but there is no need to pay the higher price on Kings +1.5 when Calgary moneyline should be the safer play. Bet Calgary moneyline and/or the total instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 6.5 (-130).

The Under is 5-0 in Los Angeles’ last 5 games after scoring 5 or more goals in its previous contest and 4-1 in the Kings’ last 5 after a win.

The Under has hit in 5 of Calgary’s last 7 home games, and Markström should have a better showing after 6 goals in the last meeting between these teams.

Los Angeles Kings at Calgary Flames odds, picks, and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Los Angeles Kings at Calgary Flames odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Kings (36-23-10) continue a Western Canadian road swing versus the Calgary Flames (40-18-8) at Scotiabank Saddledome Thursday. Puck drop is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we look at the Kings vs. Flames odds and lines, and make our expert NHL picks, predictions and bets.

The Kings were edged 4-3 in a shootout at the Edmonton Oilers Wednesday. Los Angeles has been outscored 10-4 in its last two games and is 3-3-2 across its last eight outings.

The Flames were nipped at home by the first-place Colorado Avalanche by a 2-1 score Tuesday. The defense and goaltending were still solid, and the Flames have yielded just 2.3 goals per game across their last 10 outings.

Cal Petersen (18-11-1, 2.74 GAA, .900 SV%, 3 SO) vs. Jacob Markstrom (31-13-7, 2.16 GAA, .925 SV%, 9 SO)

Kings at Flames odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Flames 5, Kings 2

Money line

The Flames (-300) will cost you nearly three times your potential return, and that’s way too expensive. You can’t bet like that, or you’re going to be in a deep hole before too long.

AVOID.

Against the spread

The FLAMES -1.5 (-125) are a much better value laying the goal and a half.

Calgary has won by 2 or more goals in each of its last seven victories, and L.A. just played Wednesday, so the Kings’ legs are sure to be tired and the defense could be a little on the lazy side.

Over/Under

OVER 6.5 (+112) is the lean, ever so slightly.

It’s been all about the Over lately for Los Angeles, going 5-0-1 in the past six games, while going 9-3 in the past 12 against winning teams.

For Calgary, the Over is 3-1-1 in the past five games overall, while going 3-1-1 in its last five as a favorite, too. Look for at least 7 total goals.
