Calgary looks to extend its winning streak to 8 games when they tangle with the 15-3-1 Red Wings Wednesday at Pengrowth Saddledome.
Sporting an 11-7-2 overall record and a 7-2-0 mark within the division, the Flames aim to knock the Red Wings (8-0-0 in the division) for a loss.
The Red Wings are favored slightly by the bookmakers, who opened the game at 110. They are 15-3-1 on the season, while their hosts bring an 11-7-2 mark to the table. The total has been set at 5.5.
Detroit looks to get its forwards going today, after a lame display last game resulted in a 4-1 loss against the Canucks. The Red Wings were favorites in that game, which went under the closing total.
Calgary won at home last game as a 220 favorite against the Wild, winning 3-2. The total sailed as a push against.
You can't expect much in the way of offensive fireworks from Calgary. Saddled with the 28th-ranked offence and averaging just 2.6 goals per game the Flames' offence needs to give its defensive unit some help Wednesday in order to have a chance against the Red Wings.
Some trends to consider:
Detroit is 1-4-1 OU in its last 6 away
Detroit is 1-4-0 OU in its last 5 games
Detroit is 2-4-1 OU in its last 7 games away against Calgary
Detroit is 4-2-0 OU in its last 6 games against Calgary
Calgary is 4-2-0 OU in its last 6 games against Detroit
Calgary is 4-9-0 SU in its last 13 games after scoring 3 to 4 goals
Calgary is 2-4-1 OU in its last 7 games at home against Detroit
Calgary is 2-7-1 OU in its last 10 at home
Next up:
Detroit at Edmonton, Thursday, November 17
Calgary home to Chicago, Friday, November 18
