Most of the NHL games next Thursday night schedule will take place in Western Conference venues, so the clash between Calgary Flames and Colorado Avalanche can be remarked as one of the most attractive due to the big urgency of getting immediate results for both teams. In this regard, the bookmakers’ odds are putting Colorado Avalanche as the big favorites to win, but they aren’t expected to dominate the game.
When looking at both teams’ performance, Calgary Flames is on a very risky position as they’re tied on points with Vancouver Canucks (59), so in case of not winning this game they could easily be taken off the playoffs’ spots. In addition, it must be added that their offensive performance has been one of the worst in the whole Conference after only being able to score 144 goals throughout the season.
On Colorado Avalanche’s case, they recently lost a streak of 2 victories in a row after their most recent loss against Vancouver Canucks (3-0), and even when that result hasn’t impacted on their qualification expectations, that inconsistency makes it impossible to take them into consideration as big contenders to battle for the Stanley Cup championship.
