Canucks vs. Flames: Odds, Lines, Picks, and Predictions - December 14, 2022 | NHL Regular Season
Vancouver Canucks head to Calgary for a Pacific Division matchup. The Flames sit directly atop Vancouver in the standings, with four points separating them.
On paper, Vancouver have an extremely weak team, but they have been rattling off wins, taking six of their last nine. However, they have mostly been polishing lesser teams off. The problem with this is that we still don't know what to make of Calgary and it will depend on which version of the team turns up on the night.
Calgary have lost their last three games, one of which was against Columbus Blue Jackers. Prior to that, they had won four of five, so it's hard to get a read on this team. If they are to be playoff contenders, they need to knock Vancouver off, a tough task with Jacob Markstrom in the net.

Canucks vs. Flames Match Best Picks
Goals should be bountiful in this game. Both teams have solid offenses; Calgary are running with an extremely sub-par goalie, so the Canucks could put up seven goals themselves.
The over has hit in 17 of Vancouver's 28 games, and they should easily add to that total today.
Over 6.5 (-110)
Bo Horvat has been an absolute stud for Vancouver. He has scored 20 goals this season, but has failed to net one in his last two. Playing Calgary today, he should put the biscuit in the basket tonight.

Canucks vs. Flames Match Prediction
This is a game the Flames need to win as they are currently in the middle of the pack in the standings, and they need to take advantage of every opportunity to improve their record.
However, with the prospect of facing Spencer Marting and a wily Canucks team, it is that they will find the going difficult.
Divisional games are always tougher; it's just a factor one has to consider, but taking the underdog in this game is a strong play.
Vancouver (+155)
