Calgary at Tampa Bay

The Calgary Flames were not a factor last season as they finished the year with just 77 total points - the worst mark in the western Conference outside of Edmonton. They have really shown to be a vastly underrated and improved team to start the 2014-15 season as they are 8-4-2 through 14 games. The Flames allowed 4 goals in two of their first three games on the season, but over the last 11 games, no opponent has topped the 3-goal mark against them, including three overtime games and a pair of shootouts. The total tally by opponents is 22 in the 11 games at a stingy 2 goals per contest. The Flames' confidence is growing and they come to Tampa Bay riding a three-game winning streak. They will be out to avenge a hard-fought, tight-checking game vs. Tampa Bay where they lost 2-1 in overtime. Tampa Bay has equalled the Flames' three-game winning streak, and I expect another low-scoring tightly-contested game here, but Calgary will be the more motivated team in this contest. The Lightning has really struggled when they face a winning team at just 10-22 in their last 32 when facing one. The Flames have done great work on the road where they have won the battle on the ice in opponents' arenas in five of their last six. Calgary has a history of playing UNDER the total when they play the opposing Eastern Conference at 22-8 in their last 30, and are 34-16-2 to the UNDER in their last 52 vs. the Atlantic. Revenge in order for the Flames. so play on Calgary and the UNDER.
