Weekly NHL Betting action sees the Calgary Flames<\/strong> taking on the Chicago Blackhawks<\/strong> on October 15 at United Center. Cappers Picks provides free NHL handicapping tips all season long.<\/p>\n The Calgary Flames have the misfortune of playing the early Stanley Cup favorites in their second of back-to-back road games.<\/p>\n Calgary<\/a> (2-2-0-0) at Chicago<\/a> (2-0-0-0)<\/strong> Click here to view today’s… NHL Matchup Angles<\/a> | NHL Insider Gambling Preview<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n If that wasn\u2019t daunting enough \u2013 the Hawks have gotten off to a perfect start this season and look very much like the team to beat in the West. Calgary won in a shootout last night in Nashville while the Blackhawks have been off since Saturday when they blew Buffalo out of the rink 6-2.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=64160&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n The Calgary Flames are back to the .500 mark after last night’s win. It was the defensive pair of Mark Giordano and TJ Brodie that made the difference – combining for four points on the night. Backup goaltender Karri Ramo was also terrific making 19 saves, many of the highlight variety and all three stops in the shootout.<\/p>\n He will likely sit in favor of Jonas Hiller however who is winless on the season and has a 3.53 GAA and .901 save percentage.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=16&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n Giordano and Brodie lead the Flames in scoring so far. Juri Hudler had Joe Cobourne each have four points on the year – not too bad after four games. Newly signed Mason Raymond has three goals, providing an unforeseen spark for what had been a poor Calgary offense.<\/p>\n 11 Flames players have recorded at least a point this year – decent depth but it would be nice if players like Matt Stajan, Johnny Gaudreau and Devin Setoguchi would somehow get their first point.<\/p>\n It’s pretty hard not to love the Chicago Blackhawks early in the season! The team has scored eight goals in their first two games while allowing just four, they are averaging 36.5 shots on goal per game while surrendering just 28.5 and Corey Crawford already seems to be in mid-season form with his 1.92 GAA and .930 save percentage already.<\/p>\n How good are the Blackhawks? Brad Richards is playing on the third line – the Hawks haven’t really seen a need to break up the Andrew Shaw\/Patrick Kane\/Brandon Saad line. Chicago’s second line combined for seven points in the teams’ 6-2 win Saturday night.<\/p>\n The top line of Toews\/Sharp\/Hossa has not caught fire yet but remember – the team has played just two games thus far.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=64161&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n \u2022 Over is 23-9-3 in CAL last 35 vs. Central. Look, there is no way I can support a wager on the Flames against an elite team like Chicago in the second game of back-to-back road games. Chicago is just too strong and the Flames are simply not that great a team \u2013 especially the way Jonas Hiller has started his season.<\/p>\n Because there is no value in betting the Moneyline here, take a look at the spread.<\/p>\n This game shouldn\u2019t be close prompting me to go with Chicago -1 1\/2 on the puckline. Chicago is a force \u2013 Calgary simply isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n Chicago Blackhawks -1 1\/2 (+110)<\/strong><\/p>\n CappersPicks.com NHL Betting<\/a> and gambling site provides the BEST Online hockey predictions<\/a> for you to bet on for the NHL hockey season!
