Our final and featured game of NHL predictions is another installment in the Battle of Alberta between the Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames. Calvin Pickard is expected to draw the start and most of them while Tristan Jarry is out. The Oilers are 7-2-1 in their previous 10 games, including wins in four of their last five. Connor McDavid is making his own case for MVP with 23 goals and 44 assists for 67 points.
Dustin Wolfe is the projected starter for the Flames, who are steadying the ship after a rough start. Calgary is 6-4 in its last 10 games but did suffer a 5-1 loss to Edmonton in the last game before the break. Mattew Coronato leads the team in goals with 11, while Nazem Kadri is first in points with 31.
These rivalry games are always intense, but the Oilers should get the victory.
