How to Watch: US TV: ESPN+. Canada TV: Sportsnet; SN360; TVA Sports

Time: 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)

Our final game of NHL predictions is another installment of the Battle of Alberta between the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames. Tristan Jarry is expected to get the start in this game for the Oilers, who are coming off a 5-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday. However, Edmonton is 5-5 in its last 10 games entering this final meeting of the season with rival Calgary. Defenceman Evan Bouchard has 11 points in his previous 10 games.

Dustin Wolf is the probable starter for Calgary, which is 3-5-2 in its last 10 games. However, the Flames could take the season series with a win in this game. Nazem Kadri is first on the club in assists (27) and points (37) so far Calgary.

Edmonton is coming off a loss to Toronto. However, the Oilers should bounce back in this one.

Prediction: Oilers win 5-2.
