Calgary could have had better times. The last few seasons have not gone well. A year ago, they were expected to solve big problems under Darryl Sutter but failed to make the playoffs. Ryan Huska is their new head coach, but there has been little progress. In the first six meetings, the Flames won only twice over Winnipeg and Buffalo - 5-3 and 4-3. The rest they gave to Pittsburgh, 2-5, Washington, 2-3, Columbus, 1-3, and Detroit, 2-6. Calgary is only tenth in the Western Conference.

The Rangers have been disappointing lately, as well. With a powerful roster, they left the cup campaign in the first round of the playoffs, losing to New Jersey 4-3. The club's new coach was Peter Laviolette. Under his leadership, the New York team lost five of six preseason games. In the season's debut, they alternated wins (over Buffalo, 5-1, Arizona, 2-1, Seattle, 4-1) and losses (to Columbus and Nashville, 3-5 and 1-4). The Rangers are in sixth place in the Eastern Conference.

This debut was unsuccessful for Calgary, as they earned only 5 out of 12 points in six games. Recall that five meetings were away, and the only home game they won. In addition, at home, they won the last four H2H meetings. So, in the upcoming match, the Flames are favorites. 

Calgary has been beating the Rangers regularly lately, playing great in offense. In seven meetings, the Flames scored 31 pucks (an average of 4.43) into the Jackets' net. In the upcoming battle, Ryan Husky's wards should also be efficient in the offense.
