Expect the Flyers to get hammered by the betting public on Saturday. First off it’s an afternoon game which usually gives the edge to the home team in the NHL where players are creatures of habit.
Of course, the main reason to like Philly here is because the Flames are in a free fall, losing 6 straight with little to no offense in most of those games. It begs the question though – why are the Flyers only -120?
Calgary Flames
To say that Calgary is in a rut right now would be offensive to ruts. The Flames have not only dropped six in a row, their high score mark over that stretch is a 2-3 loss to the Blues in OT.
Calgary has been shut out in 3 of their last six and have a total of 5 goals scored over that span. The total of Saturday’s game with Philadelphia almost puts all the onus on the Flyers to score – but they’ve been held under 2 in 3 of the last 5.
Bill Peters’ team has won 5 of the last 6 against Philadelphia, which could be a major reason for the low ML number. Calgary has just been so bad though; they’ve been favored in 4 of the 6 games on their losing streak.

For the Flames to get the win at +100 they need a stand-on-your-head game from G David Rittich. He’s been in net for 3 of the 6 losses during Calgary’s run, most recently giving up 5 goals on 31 shots to St. Louis on Thursday.
Philadelphia Flyers
Why are the Flyers getting no love from oddsmakers here? Philly is a respectable 5th in the Metropolitan and has gone 7-3-2 at home on the year. The Flames conversely are 4-9-1 going away.
Is this game simply a trap and nothing more? 3/4 of the public are on the Flyers and with good reason. Well, Philadelphia has lost 4 of 5 but at least they have a 3 goals and a 5 goals scored game over that span. Calgary hasn’t broken 2 goals in over two weeks.
Alain Vigneault’s squad also comes into Saturday’s early start with a bit of momentum after scoring a 5-3 win at Carolina on Thursday as +140 underdogs. Claude Giroux had 2 goals and 2 assists in that game and getting him going would be a game-changer for the Flyers.

Free Philadelphia Flyers vs. Calgary Flames NHL Prediction:
This just seems like way too friendly of a line for the home team, one I’ve actually had to double check through multiple places to see if it’s legit. This game has trap city written all over it, but for such a cheap price the bait looks tasty.
