Senators vs Flames prediction
Senators vs Flames best bet: Senators -1.5 (+145)
The Calgary Flames are 3-6-3 since trading defenseman Rasmus Andersson to the Vegas Golden Knights, while the Ottawa Senators are 7-3-2 during the same stretch.
Ottawa also ranks third in expected goals percentage at five-on-five with an overall plus-12 goal differential during the run, and Calgary checks in 17th in xGF% with a minus-14 mark.
The Flames appear to be mailing it in and could rest trade assets ahead of Friday’s deadline, so expect Ottawa to take advantage.
