CAL Flames

For Calgary the current regular season has turned out very badly. In the ten starting games, the Flames had eight losses, and therefore it was already clear that they would have big problems with the task of reaching the playoffs. After that, the Red-and-Yellow tried to improve and had brief successful stretches, but it wasn't enough to seriously interfere in the distribution of cup spots. At the end of the season, they failed. In the last eight meetings they allowed seven defeats, each of which was in regulation time, and managed to beat only Los Angeles - 4:2. Now Calgary occupies only 12th place in the Western Conference standings.

EDM Oilers

The current regular season started even worse for Edmonton, which allowed ten defeats in 12 starting meetings. It looked like the Oilers were going to have a disappointing performance, but they had a change of head coach, which clearly benefited them, and their star leaders got in good shape and dragged the team along. By December, they had already made tremendous progress, allowing them to post a 16-game winning streak. Of course, defeats have happened since then, but the Blue and Orange are looking very good over the distance, and that's why they sit fifth in the Western Conference standings.

Expert Betting Tips

Edmonton has little tournament motivation at the end of the regular season. The Oilers are still in fifth place in the Western Conference, and it will be problematic for them to drop down, and they can only climb one line at best. At the same time, they will not play without the proper attitude, as it is still important for the leaders to collect points and improve their personal statistics, and before the start of the cup battles it is necessary to maintain confidence in their own abilities. Moreover, Calgary is really bad right now, having scored 2 out of 16 possible points in their last eight games, so it's a good bet on Edmonton to win.
