Calgary Flames vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction & Picks, October 24, 2026

Calgary Flames play at home against the Detroit Red Wings, and both teams are struggling a bit lately, each winning only 3 of their last 10 games. The Flames have a slight advantage being on home ice at the Scotiabank Saddledome. With the game expected to be tight, their stronger shooting from left-handed players could play a key role in the final period. The bet here is on the Flames to win the third period. The odds are nearly even, which shows it could go either way. The main risk is that both teams have been inconsistent, so it's possible the Flames might not pull through when it counts. But playing at home gives them a good shot to finish strong.

Calgary Flames vs Detroit Red Wings: Calgary Flames 3-Way Moneyline (+170)

Calgary Flames have had a tough start, winning only 3 of their last 10 games, but they are playing at home, which can give them a boost. They have a good number of left-handed shooters, which might help them create some scoring chances against the Detroit Red Wings, who also have won just 3 of their last 10. The Flames are seen as an underdog with a real chance to win this game, especially with the support of their fans at Scotiabank Saddledome. The risk is that both teams are struggling right now, so it could be a close match. Still, with those home ice vibes, taking a shot on the Flames feels promising.

Calgary Flames vs Detroit Red Wings: Under 4.5 Total Goals (+320)

Calgary Flames and Detroit Red Wings have both struggled a bit lately, each winning only 3 out of their last 10 games. Playing at Scotiabank Saddledome, the Flames will hope to tighten their defense and keep the score low. Both teams have been finding it tough to score, which makes this pick look promising. With how they have played recently, we might not see many goals here. The Flames' shooters tend to lean left, which could affect how they attack the Red Wings' net. The biggest concern is that our numbers expect a higher total than what we're betting on. Still, a low-scoring game is definitely possible, making the under 4.5 goals worth a shot.

Calgary Flames vs Detroit Red Wings: Justin Faulk Over 1.5 Shots on Goal (+110)

Calgary Flames are playing at home against the Detroit Red Wings, and it should be an exciting matchup. Both teams have had a rough time lately, winning only three out of their last ten games. However, Justin Faulk has a solid chance to get over 1.5 shots on goal. With the Flames needing to boost their offense, he might step up to take more shots. While both teams struggle, Faulk has been an active shooter on the ice, which works in our favor. The risk you should consider is that the game could be tight, and both teams might focus more on defense. Still, with the odds at +110, this bet looks promising for a fun evening of hockey.
