Ottawa at Calgary

Ottawa opened as a dog, but has a winning record both home and on the road. Ottawa has excellent balance at #13 in goals scored and on the power play, plus they're #11 in goals allowed and at killing penalties. Thursday's 5-3 win over Arizona improved the Flames to 7-0-1 following a loss and gave them an opportunity to begin a winning streak. It also gave them 10 wins in 18 games after last season's club did it in 27. In goal, Craig Anderson has been hot for Ottawa at 3-0-2 with a 1.73 goals-against average this month. The Senators are 7-3 against a team with a winning record. Calgary is not a dominant home team and is not strong on defense at #15 in goals allowed and #26 in penalty killing. The Flames are 2-5 in their last seven games following a win, making this a great spot for the undervalued visitors. Play Ottawa.
