The Calgary Flames will be in the playoffs and with less urgency, they've dropped three of four and five of eight. Calgary is #16 in goals scored, #14 in goals allowed, and is off a 3-1 loss at Anaheim, now 3-7 against the Pacific Division. This is the middle of a three-game road trip to end the regular season and they face a Los Angeles team with no playoff pressure on them. The Kings exploded on offense at home the last game, blitzing Edmonton 6-4. The Kings have a winning record at home and are outstanding on defense at fourth in goals allowed, and third in penalty killing. The Kings are 8-2 at home against a team with a winning road record, while Calgary has lost six of the last eight here - including the last four. Play the L.A. Kings.
