Tampa Bay Lightning vs Calgary Flames Picks & Predictions

Blake Coleman (Calgary Flames) Under 2.5 Shots On Goal (-161)

If you've been keeping tabs on Blake Coleman's shot performance, you'll know he's been a little shy of the mark lately. The Calgary Flames' winger has been averaging just 2.2 shots per home game over his last five outings, dipping even lower when you look at his overall average of 2 shots per game. He's currently on a no-hit streak at home, and his hit rate for his last 15 home games is a respectable 12 out of 15, but it's not the kind of streak that screams 'sharpshooter'. Overall, he's been hitting under the mark in 13 of his last 16 games. As the Flames prepare to square off against the Tampa Bay Lightning, it's worth considering a bet on Coleman to deliver Under 2.5 shots on goal. After all, past performance often hints at future results.

Calgary Flames vs Tampa Bay Lightning : Tampa Bay Lightning win (-189)

As we gear up for this electrifying face-off on the NHL ice, it's hard to ignore the Tampa Bay Lightning's recent hot streak. Look at their last five games, they've been dominating with a 4-1 record both overall and on the road. They've been lighting up the scoreboards, too, averaging 2.2 goals per game overall and an even better 2.4 when they're the away team. On the other side of the rink, the Calgary Flames' form has been decidedly chillier. Their record on home ice is a disappointing 0-5, and they're just not finding the net - managing only 0.4 goals per game at home and overall. Plus, they're letting in 2.6 goals on average, which doesn't bode well against Tampa's potent attack. With these factors in mind, it seems like a smart call to back the Tampa Bay Lightning on the Moneyline for this clash.
