Calgary - Vancouver: NHL match betting tip
Calgary has been given time to rest and will play at home against Vancouver on March 13. The meeting promises to be very interesting, because both teams are located on the border of the playoff zone in the West and continue to fight for the last slot in the top eight among themselves. The Canucks have lost two games at home and are set to start a winning streak in Alberta. The Flames are good on their ice this season. Who will be more successful? This is stated in the betting tip for the match
Command Analysis
Calgary Flames
CanadaCurrent form
Calgary is back in the top eight in the West, but it can't feel comfortable yet. The team from Procinius Alberta is only in eighth place in the conference and has earned 70 points in 63 starts. The Canadians are only one point ahead of Vancouver, which is behind them, but they have one game left in order to build on this advantage. Since the beginning of spring, Ryan Husky's team has been alternating wins and losses, but they are constantly gaining points. They lost on the road in Texas (2:3, OT), and after returning home they were stronger than Montreal (1:0).
The Flames don't play their best offensively throughout the regular season and score only 2.6 goals per game. In the last six games, they were able to score only ten times, while they did not score a single goal twice. Nazem Kadri (22+24) and Jonathan Huberdeau (22+24) remain the best offensive players of the hosts, each of whom scored 46 points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Justin Kirkland and Anthony Manta will not be able to play against Vancouver.
Interesting betting trends
- Calgary throws 29 times per game on average
- Canadians earn 9.81 penalty minutes per match
Vancouver Canucks
CanadaCurrent form
Vancouver remains among the contenders for the playoffs and is currently in ninth place in the East. The team from the province of British Columbia scored 69 points in 64 games and is just one point behind Calgary, which has one point more. It is very important for the visitors to win on the road in order to reduce this gap to a minimum. The Canucks have slowed down since the beginning of spring and have won only two of their last six games. They got off to a good start in the last series of games at home, but lost to Dallas (1-4) and Montreal (2:4) before visiting.
Recently, the guests have often been let down by a weak defensive game. In the last six games, they conceded 22 goals, but they always won when they managed to play reliably. Kevin Lankinen appears on the ice more often than others at the start and so far has 90.35% of saves. The Finnish goalkeeper has played 41 games this season and made four shutouts in the regular season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Thatcher Demko and Noah Julsen will not come to the province of Alberta. The condition of Quinn Hughes is still in question.
Interesting betting trends
- Vancouver blocks 14 shots per match
- The Canucks only make 25 shots on average per game.
Trends

1.85Bet 2nd period: Calgary will score
Calgary has scored in the second period in the last three games.
1.47Tip and bets
Calgary is in good shape and has been scoring points for four consecutive games. Ryan Husky's team really wants to stay in the playoff zone, and for this it is extremely important to beat Vancouver. The Canucks haven't been doing their best defensively lately, but it's not like the Killer whales have been throwing a lot on their own. The teams have already met three times this season, and two games remained for the Flames. At the moment, the team from the province of Alberta looks preferable to the opponent. We propose to take the victory of the hosts with a zero handicap.
Our prediction is that Calgary willwinwith an Asian handicap (0) in 1.70
Betting on an individual total
Calgary plays defensively and is particularly reliable in its own arena. On average, the Flames concede only 2.66 goals per match at home, while in January they allowed the killer whales to score only once. Vancouver is not always good at attacking and often does not score more than two goals per match. We think that the guests will not be able to do this again.
Prediction - Vancouver's individual total is less than 2.5 goals in 1.82
Bet on the total
The match between the rivals is unlikely to be productive, because we will see indoor hockey without a lot of mistakes. In the last two games, the teams scored only four goals between them. Right now, the match is extremely important for both of them, so we'll bet on a total of fewer goals.
Betting Tip - total less than 5.5 goals in 1.83
