Calgary Flames vs LA Kings Prediction

I’m on the Flames here. The price feels a little bit hefty for my liking and while the Kings are playing the better hockey, they’re still a .500 team on the road in a matchup where the home team has won 8 straight meetings head-to-head. Calgary’s had their issues, but they still play their best hockey at home so give me the Flames and the plus money.
