The Calgary Flames penalty kill has held opponents to a 1 for 17 run on the power play in their last 17 games. The Vegas Golden Knights are on a poor 3 for 25 run on the power play in their last 11 games. You can see why special teams play is unlikely to help in the goal-scoring department in this match-up.
With consideration to all of the above factors, goals are likely to be few and far between in this one and the best (value) is to take the UNDER based on a projected final score of Vegas Golden Knights 3, Calgary Flames 2
