Our experts checked out the lines and odds at PointsBet Sportsbook and came up with a best bet from their Red Wings vs. Flames predictions, which is on the Flames -1.5 puck line.

The Red Wings began this season proving that they were a better team than last season, but it still hasn’t fully come together. The young pieces are there with Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider, but they still need more time. Their primary concern last season was goaltending, which they improved by adding goalie Vile Husso from the St. Louis Blues.

However, the Wings were just in action last night and Husso was in net. That means he’ll be unavailable for this matchup, which makes Detroit much more like the team they were last season when they allowed the second-most goals per game. In their two games against the Flames last year, they lost both in shutout fashion.

Not only were the Wings just on the ice last night, but they were also on the road in Edmonton, and will now be on the road once again in Calgary. They’re also going from facing the NHL’s top two point-scorers in Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl to a Flames team that has scored 10 goals in their last two games.

This looks to be a great spot for Calgary to get their revenge on Detroit for their upset last week, which you can also tail after signing up at PointsBet.

Whether you’d like to back our Red Wings vs. Flames predictions or not is completely up to you, but make sure you snag your PointsBet bonus promo first. Remember, you can place your first fixed-odds wager up to $50 for each of the first five days you’re a member and be fully insured with Second Chance bets.
