San Jose - Calgary: betting tip (cf. 1.85) and bets on the NHL match


Command Analysis

San Jose's performance has noticeably decreased compared to the beginning of October. For example, in the last three meetings, the team managed to score only four goals, and three of them came in a 3-2 victory over Vancouver. Then the main character was Will Smith, who scored a double and helped to fix the situation in the third period. But in the confrontation with Buffalo (0:2), the attack did not cope with its task at all. Even Maclean Celebrini, who usually creates a lot of dangerous moments, failed to change the situation. As a result, the sharks continue to alternate good performances with rather unpleasant defeats.
The meeting with Ottawa was especially difficult. In the first period, Michael Misa restored equality after conceding the puck, but then the hosts practically stopped posing a threat to other people's goals. The Canadians scored three times in the second twenty minutes, and then brought the score to 5:1. Alex Nedelkovich made 30 saves, but it was not possible to stop the opponent's attack. Ryan Warsofsky's men have lost three of their last four matches, and now they need to find a way to fix the situation. Moreover, the problems relate not only to defense, because attackers too often remain without effective actions.

There is a rather unusual difference in Calgary's home and away results. The team won five games in a row on its own court, but away it achieved only one victory in six attempts. Moreover, in three of the four previous away matches, the Flames scored no more than two goals. For example, against Edmonton, the Canadians did not manage to distinguish themselves at all and lost with a score of 0:4. Against the background of such results, Joel Farabi stands out, who tries to keep active ahead, but does not always receive sufficient help from partners.
Before the last trip, the team dealt with Seattle quite confidently (6:2). Matt Coronato scored four points at once, and the offense left almost no chance for the opponent. However, it was not possible to repeat such a performance in Denver. By the middle of the second period, Colorado led 4-0, after which Calgary managed to slightly reduce the gap thanks to goals from Farabi and Martin Pospisil. However, the hosts quickly regained their comfortable advantage and won 5:2. The defeat was the second for the Flames in three matches, although the team had been scoring points for a long time before that.
Tip and bets
At first glance, the latest results of both teams may hint at another productive meeting. San Jose recently conceded five goals from Ottawa, and Calgary got the same amount in the match against Colorado. However, there is another important detail in these defeats. The Sharks themselves scored only once, while the Canadians were limited to two goals. Moreover, similar performance difficulties have already repeatedly arisen among rivals over the past weeks. Therefore, it would be quite risky to expect an open hockey game with a lot of pucks here.
Especially a lot will depend on Calgary's offensive performance. Guests regularly experience difficulties with implementation on someone else's ice and are unlikely to want to make a lot of mistakes again. San Jose also needs to improve its reliability after the recent defeat. We do not exclude that the teams will act more cautiously than usual, paying more attention to defense. In such a situation, it is quite possible to expect to meet with a relatively small number of goals.
