Columbus at Calgary

Columbus is an average team. They are however, one that is playing their best hockey of the season which makes them dangerous. The Blue Jackets have now only lost two of their last eight games, and one of those was in a shootout. They have gotten superb goaltending, allowing just 19 pucks to clear the net, or 2.4 a game. Calgary has been just the opposite. The Flames have lost just seven times all season at home, but have hit a speed bump as three of those seven have come in their last four home games. After turning in a 12-3 run, the Flames have slipped back as they are just 5-6 in their last 11. The dog has taken five of the last seven in this series. The Blue Jackets are out-playing the Flames right now, so I'll back them on the road here.
