Flames vs Senators Prediction

For a moneyline pick, I’m taking the Senators to pick up on a win over the Flames at home. With the moneyline sitting at -149, I’ll be locking in a bet on the Senators straight-up.

If you’re looking for a puck line bet, I’d suggest going with the Flames to cover. Even in the event of a Senators victory, this game is expected to be closely fought, and the Flames should cover the puck line.

For those looking at the over/under line set at 6 goals, our expectation is that this game will surpass that mark, and we suggest making a bet on the over.
