Premium Pick

The West has been crazy this postseason. The #1, #2 and #4 seeds were all upset and are sitting at home. Can Anaheim force out the #3 seeded Calgary Flames to complete the upset sweep? Nah. This series has traded wins/losses and it's time again for another Calgary win to take the series. The Ducks have played well but they are just 11-30 as a road dog of +100 to +150 over the past three seasons. Calgary is 32-12 at home this year. They are also 8-2 in playoff games when the series is tied over the past three seasons. Anaheim is a well balanced team and with that plus home ice, they always have a shot. But, on the road, it's a different story where the Ducks are just 18-26 on the season. Calgary allowed 1.8 goals per game here during the regular season and the Ducks don't have the offensive firepower necessary. Flames here.

4 units on Calgary -160 (moneyline) (risk 4 to return 6.5)
