The Calgary Flames will face the Philadelphia Flyers at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia on Sunday night. Calgary is near the bottom of the standings and dealing with a travel disadvantage in this game. But this game could get unpredictable with both teams on the second leg of a back-to-back. Before the puck drops in Philly, continue reading to get my Flames vs Flyers prediction.
Calgary enters at 2-9-2 with only six points, which is the fewest in the NHL so far this season. Their offense is averaging 2.15 goals per game while surrendering over 3.5 goals per contest. They have not been good enough in any facet of the game and will try to turn things around on tired legs in this matchup.
Philadelphia is 6-4-1 and has built some early momentum this year. They’re averaging 2.73 goals per contest while allowing 2.64 goals per game to begin the season. The Flyers lost on Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs and they will try to avoid a second loss in a row in this contest.
Calgary’s Dustin Wolf is 2-8-1 so far this season, but he could be held out of this game given that the Flames are playing for the second day in a row here. Philadelphia's Dan Vladar, who gave up four goals to the Maple Leafs yesterday. We could see Vladar held out of this game as well, as backup goaltending could end up being the key to this matchup.
Calgary's Nazem Kadri (3 goals, 7 assists) and Morgan Frost (2 goals, 5 assists) are among the few offensive sparks for the Flames. But their supporting cast has struggled to deliver. Calgary’s power-play is converting at 14% and its penalty kill is only killing penalties 76.9% of the time.
The Flyers are being led by Trevor Zegras (4 goals, 9 assists) and young forward Matvei Michkov (1 goal, 3 assists) is showing up as well. The Flyers' penalty kill is successful at a 90% clip to start this season and their ability to kill penalties more efficiently than the Flames could be a big difference maker here.
Player | Prop |
|---|---|
Nazem Kadri (Flames) | Over 0.5 points |
Matvei Michkov (Flyers) | Over 0.5 goals |
Noah Cates (Flyers) | Over 0.5 assists |
Score Projection: Calgary Flames 2 – Philadelphia Flyers 4
Win Probability: Calgary 33%, Philadelphia 67%
These teams are both going to have to overcome short rest to deliver in this game. But the Flyers are at home for both games of their back-to-back, while the Flames are on the road for both. I'll take the Flyers to win and cover the puckline at home in this matchup, as the Flames' disastrous start to the season should continue.
