Command Analysis

Winnipeg Jets

Current form
Winnipeg continues to lead the Western Conference table and has already earned a total of 69 points. The team continues to keep the bar high, as it understands perfectly well that it can give up the first line to one of its competitors at any moment. In general, it has recently tried to show its best side and even issued a series of three victories. However, not long ago, a successful series of matches was replaced by two defeats in a row.
Let us recall that after a home victory over Seattle (2:1), the Jets lost to Calgary (1:3), and also lost away to the same Utah (2:5). However, in the final confrontation with a strong opponent in the person of Colorado, they celebrated a success with a score of 3:2 in overtime and got away with only two missed pucks. The Air Army also played a great home meeting against Utah, in which they achieved a victory with a score of 5:2 and showed a great game in attack, and in response allowed the opponent to make only 19 shots.
When it comes to the play of Scott Arniel team at home, it can be noted that throughout the season, with the support of their fans, they have shown a great game and up to this point have suffered only five failures in regulation time. It is also worth remembering that Winnipeg uses its attempts on the majority powerfully and currently has 32.4% of the power play, occupying the first place in the championship in this indicator.

Calgary Flames

Current form
Calgary currently occupies the eighth position in the Western Conference and is in a fierce battle to get into the playoffs. The team has already earned a total of 55 points and continues to show decent results. Ryan Huskey team cannot boast of a stable strong game on the road, but at home the Canadians often please fans. Before this, the Flames beat Chicago on the road (5:2), lost twice to St. Louis (1:2 and 1:4) and unexpectedly dealt with Winnipeg (3:1).
After another return to home ice, they faced Buffalo, where they secured their success, beating their opponents 5-2. Due to their crazy schedule, the Flames had to go on the road again. In their first away game, they battled Minnesota and won a tense 5-4 victory, nearly allowing their opponents to make a comeback from 4-1 at the end of the third period. Fortunately, there were literally 27 seconds left from the opponent last goal until the final buzzer, so Calgary, although hesitantly, brought the matter to a victorious end.
Overall, away wins for the Huskies have been extremely difficult, as they have only managed to win five games within 60 minutes so far. They often have problems creating and converting chances, which is why the team is one of the lowest scoring teams in their conference.
Disqualifications and injuries
Justin Kirkland, Anthony Mantha and Connor Zary will be unable to help their team in the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- Calgary gets 10.13 penalty minutes
Lights are removed on average at least five times per match
- Calgary has only a 72.3% power play neutralization rate
The team has been poor in the penalty kill all season and ranks 29th in the league in that regard.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total over 1.5 goals
In four out of five matches between the clubs, the first period was productive
1.87Bet 3rd period: guests will score
In four out of five matches, the visitors scored goals in the third period
1.67Tip and bets
In our opinion, Calgary can claim two points in the upcoming match. The Flames have caused Winnipeg many problems in previous meetings and forced their opponents to fight hard. Of course, the Flames are definitely not as strong on the road as they are on home ice, but they were able to start the current away series of matches with a victory over a serious opponent in Minnesota, so they should not be underestimated under any circumstances. Plus, the Jets themselves have rarely achieved success with a big difference in the score lately, so there is a high probability that the game will go to overtime.
Prediction - Calgary win with Asian handicap (+1) on pucks for 1.95
Bet on individual total
Calgary has managed with fewer than three goals in many previous games. After four goals from the Wild, the Flames will probably try to play as reliably as possible in defense and minimize the number of mistakes in their own zone. Winnipeg, in turn, has scored no more than two goals in four out of five games, and in the recent confrontation with the Flames, which took place literally a week ago, they were noted for only one goal.
We bet on Winnipeg individual total under 3.5 goals for 1.70
Total Bet
The last matches involving the home team were not particularly productive and often ended with fewer than six goals scored. Calgary also often stuck to a closed style of play and rarely conceded. The previous meeting between the teams ended with only four goals scored. Based on this, it makes sense to bet on the total under.
We take the total under 5.5 pucks for 1.95
