NHL weekend best bets: Flames to heat up vs. Jets
This is a fun matchup between two sides heading in very different directions.
The Winnipeg Jets are one of the hottest teams in the NHL, having posted a 7-2-1 record over the last 10 games to place them atop the Central Division.
Meanwhile, the Calgary Flames dropped seven consecutive games and are near the bottom of the Western Conference.
Despite this miserable slump, I wouldn't be so quick to write off the Flames. There are a lot of good signs amid the fog.
Jets bring 3-game win streak into matchup with the Flames
TOP PERFORMERS: Rasmus Andersson has one goal and nine assists for the Flames. Tyler Toffoli has three goals and five assists over the last 10 games.
Scheifele has eight goals and two assists for the Jets. Pierre-Luc Dubois has six goals and four assists over the past 10 games.
Jets flying, Flames fading
Calgary mired in slump entering game vs. Winnipeg
Winnipeg has collected points in seven straight games (6-0-1) to climb to the top of the Central Division, while Calgary has hit the skids over that same stretch, going an ugly 0-5-2.
“That’s the NHL. You go through ups and downs. You go through times when you’re playing well and can’t find a way to get a win, and times when you’re maybe not playing your best or you’re getting either big individual performances or finding ways to win,” Jets defenceman (and leading scorer) Josh Morrissey said following the team’s practice on Friday.
Jets take new toy on the road
“They’re playing a whole lot better than their record,” Jets head coach Rick Bowness was saying, Friday. “In our situation, the record was very flattering.”
Bowness knows the danger in seeing just the shallow picture.
So before his team hopped a charter flight to The Foothills on Friday, the coach added a little depth.
“Calgary’s first 10 minutes of the last three or four games, they dominated the first 10 minutes,” was the gist of his message. “So our start will be very, very important.”

More likely they're calling to threaten copyright infringement.
These videos generally take an hour to make, and if I need to make props that can take the same amount of time. If I was more concerned with quality they'd probably eat up a whole day for a 30 second video.

The Canes putting up 7 on the Oilers on the same night is our 7 game curse breaker.
