Jets vs. Flames: Odds, Lines, Picks, and Predictions - November 12, 2022 | NHL Regular Season
The Winnipeg Jets roll into Calgary to take on the Flames. A week ago, this could have been a meeting of the two top teams in the West.
After a 5-1 start to the season, it looked like losing Johnny "Hockey" Gaudreau was the best thing to ever happen to the franchise, but since that hot start, Calgary have lost seven in a row.
Within that terrible run, they lost three games by just one goal, including two overtime games. So while they seem to be on the cusp of breaking out of this slump, they just haven't been able to do it.
Winnipeg is 8 - 3 - 1, and that's good enough for first place in the Central Division. Connor Hellbuyck deserves the lion's share of the credit for their great record, as he has been between the pipes for all but two of their games, and Winnipeg are 1 - 1 in those games.

Jets vs. Flames Best Picks
Blake Wheeler has had a slow start to the season. While he is usually a point leader, he has four teammates with more points than him. He's top three on the team in goals and assists but fifth in points.
There has been an extreme disparity in goals on this team, as Mark Scheifele has eight, Pierre-Luc Dubois has six, and everyone else has three or fewer.
While the coaching staff probably loves that everyone is putting it in the net, Wheeler specifically needs to produce more offense if this team wants to stay atop the Central Division.
Bettors should expect more involvement from the Captain.
Blake Wheeler Over 0.5 Goals (+290)
Jets vs. Flames Prediction
This line feels too good to be true; while the Flames will eventually have to bust out of this slump, the bettors shouldn't lay money on them, until they prove they can win again.
Seeing Calgary lose at plus money feels too good to be true. Bettors should take that bet 10/10. If it doesn't hit, you can't be mad, but if you bet on Calgary to win and they lose yet again, you'll be very disappointed in that decision.
Winnipeg (+134)
