Is this Andre the Giant vs Hulk Hogan or Avalanche vs Flames in the NHL tonight? When these two teams get together, it is certainly the unstoppable force meeting the immovable object in terms of offense. Both the Avalanche and Flames are in the top five in goals per game, but what makes them even more exciting and dangerous to opponents is their ability to rip off obscene amounts of goals in a single 60 minutes.
The Flames have scored six or more goals on 10 different occasions this season, while the Avalanche own seven wins with seven or more goals scored.
Let’s take a look at the NHL betting odds, trends and picks for the game and give our Avalanche vs Flames prediction.
Avalanche vs Flames NHL Betting Preview and Stream
NHL Regular Season
Colorado Avalanche (46-14-6, 20-10-3 Away) vs. Calgary Flames (40-17-8, 21-6-6 Home)
Date: Tuesday, March 29, 2022
Time: 9:00 p.m. EST
Venue: Scotiabank Saddledome – Calgary, AB, CAN
Coverage: ESPN+
Goaltending: COL: Darcy Kuemper (2.41/.923 – Expected) | CGY: Jacob Markstrom (2.16/.925 – Expected)
The goaltending matchup in this Avalanche vs Flames game is a very good one. Kuemper and Markstrom have a combined 61-21-10 record and average well under 2.5 goals against between them. Despite all of that, we could never bring ourselves to advise you to take an under between these particular teams.
The biggest advantage either team has in this game is that the Flames have been on 10-day home stretch. The Avalanche are experienced, conditioned and far talented enough to overcome that and win this game. It is admittedly a tough game to cap, but laying -145 against the current President’s Trophy leaders is a tough thing to do.
