Our pick: Utah – Calgary: Calgary to decision

31.10.2024 02:37

Thursday night will offer a match between two teams that had a great start to this season, but good performances seem to have been taken away by high water. We are talking about Utah and Calgary. While Utah’s reason is mainly due to the defensive turnover and a more penetrating defensive line because of it, Calgary ran into strong units and couldn’t cope.

At home, Utah will miss John Marino for a few more months, key back Sean Durzi is out until the end of the season and goalies Vejmelka and Ingram are not in ideal form. When it all adds up, the woes are there. This is best illustrated by the last home game against San Jose, which Utah led 4-1. But in the third period, they lost the battle with the worst team in the NHL, letting the game go to 4-4 and then fell in overtime.

Calgary won five of the first six games, but then came a series of tough games and three defeats with a highly negative score of 5:14. Calgary is now hoping to bounce back to better results against a weaker Utah.

What to bet on:

Purely in terms of form and personnel, Utah has a worse starting position before the matchup. If Calgary wants to confirm that they have a squad that can contend for the playoffs, they need to be able to handle these games. And against Utah, the visitors will win, either in regulation time or in overtime or a shootout.

Trust:

7/10
